Anybody else have a Colnago Tandem?

[Robvolz]

Howdy from the states.

Rumor is, 11 such tandems were build, some have the Mixte style diagonal tubing for rigidity, some do not.

Supposedly, this was build for the 1980 Olympics that the American's eventually boycotted, something about Russia being evil back then.

Mine is stamped #11 on the rear drop out.

This is a pic from the day I picked her up, trading some wine and a bottle of Pappy.

Since then, I've removed the Shimano and modern bits and put proper 3t stem and bars, Panto'd parts and proper campy bits.

Please chime in.

And now….
On way to champagne ride/bike prom

Note to self: strapping champagne bucket that far back makes it unstable

Better to carry on a front rack, or better still, in belly.

Update, I have asked others and located
#10, holland,
#3, Switzerland,
#8, Texas.

Nice bike, Rob. And an even nicer lady. And probably the nicest champagne bucket I have ever seen.

"back then", but not now, obviously.
Lovely machine.
