SOLD!
Finally time to let go of my trusty Colnago CT-1 - one of the best bikes I've ever owned. It's been well ridden and has a few signs of wear - see the detailed photos for more: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ekimeno-s ... 283593611/
For those unfamiliar with this frame - it's titanium main tubing with a one-piece 'B-stay' carbon seat stays/chainstays triangle, giving a buttery smooth ride, but responds magically when putting the power down. One minor downside is the rear brake nut is stuck in the brake bridge, and turns, but not very smoothly. Never was a problem for me when adjusting the position of the brake however. It will likely come out with a bit of penetrating oil.
Comes complete with a 1-inch Colnago Star Carbon fork with plenty of steerer tube, and a Chris King 1 1/8th-inch threadless headset with a shim to fit the 1-inch carbon steerer. Size is 54cm top tube C-C, which was just about right for me at 5'10", fitting fine with a 100mm stem.
SOLD!
