One of the most beautiful bikes I´ve ever seen! Yes, great cranks and fork. And the saddle as well - what is it? I hope you´ll post some more pics as you find some new parts. Good luck for your project! BTW, you may have seen this bike - not the same frame but perhaps the same style...

Thanks for your answer, dbmtb. It´s good to know those top-end and bottom-end things concerning different Camapgnolo groupsets. Well, I´m not 100% sure about the year of the frame - I think it´s 1985 but I quess it´s possible that is from 1986-87... So, is this what you suggest (= "if you...

The frame of my Colnago is now (almost) identified = Mexico 1985(?) - and the gruppo as well (thanks for all the scanned catalogs I found on the net). The gruppo is a mix of following Campagnolo parts from different gruppos from different years: Shifters = Victory 1986 Brake calipers & levers...

Yes, I quess so...

Since I posted the pic of my bike I realized I should have shown you the other side... :oops: "22.jpg " is a pic I found on the net - I think my bike should look like it. There are also some detail shots of main components of my bike attached. I quess only the rear derailleur is original...

Now, when I got your answer I know what I should have been asked: Is my bike itself worth full restoration if I can afford it? So, thanks a lot, dbmtb, for your question and answer. And I´m glad that you think my bike is worth restoring. Only problem is that I´m not sure about my wallet -...

Of course I´ll do what I want to do. I just don´t know what to do at the moment. So, I´m asking your hrlp to make up my mind. The more I see beautiful original Mexicos like yours in Saronni Red the more I want to get one. On the other hand: is restoring worth of all money and trouble? How hard...

It´s a beast - but a beauty as well. Great looking saddle and bar tapes! Your method seems to work in practice...

Great idea, thanks! I think I prefer your option 4... :D

In fact, I already have Cinelli drops that I got into the bargain when I bought the bike. So, I am going to replace those "monstrosities" with Cinelli´s. And BTW, I´ve ordered MKS Touring pedals...

Now as my "Colnago Master from mid 1990´s" has unofficially been identified (=Colnago Mexico 1985(?), repainted, with "Master" decals and some newer components) I´m just thinking what to do next: 1. To keep it as it is now and just ride and enjoy. 2. To keep the "wrong" (but good) red paint...

Re: Colnago Master: Help, please! I recently recieved an e-mail – concerning my Colnago problem – with very believable explanation: My bike is not Colnago Master from 1990´s or 1980´s. It is repainted Colnago Mexico from mid 1980´s with Master decals Why mid 80´s Mexico instead of...

Thanks a lot, shamus, for your answer. All those clues mentioned above can be found in my bike. Except the seattube is round - not with similar profile as downtube and toptube. I think you are right - my Master must represent the first generation. Perhaps year 1984? I found this...

Thanks a lot. Very interesting information. I really appreciate your help.

Thanks for your answer. I hope that you and other "80s guys" are right - the older frame the better. Your theory of older frame and some newer components added later is interesting - and very possible. What does the "clover leaf profile" look like? The tubes of my bike are profiled - not...

I recently bought this Colnago Master - so my long-term dream of an italian road bike came true. :D Seller of the bike told me that it´s from mid 1990´s. I would like to know the exact year. I´ve tried to find shots of similar bike on the net but I haven´t found any. Further information of...
