Colnago C-40

Some pics of my C40. Not built to be retro so no attempt at historical accuracy. I've swapped everything over from my old Scott. Mix of Centaur and Record so Italian apart from the bars and stem.

Yummy.

I keep promising myself a C40, but can never quite bite the bullet.

headset stack & upward stem make the front end look ugly for such a nice frame.....

It's a nice frame Neil. Well worth a go if you find a nice example.

Yes yes, well aware of that but I'm all about a comfy position after years of neck/back problems from being too stretched out.

Re:

Lovely, keep promising myself a C40....how's the ride, I see some professional riders say it's the best frame they've ever ridden

It's nice yes. Currently in the Alps and it's going well. To be honest I've not ridden enough different bikes to be able to comment but its a definite keeper.
