Which Colnago is this?

[UnclePete]

Chaps, I've had this bike for ages and always understood it to be a Super, but something I read online has made me less certain of myself.

Columbus Thron tubing, what seems to be Colnago's Art Decor paintwork, Precisa fork, early 2000s by the 9-speed Veloce gruppo.

Your identification skills are very much appreciated!

Unless I'm very much mistaken, it's a mid to late 1990s Super Thron (sometimes incorrectly called a Thron Super). Going by the paint scheme (which is similar to the decor used on the Altain models) I'd err more to the late 90s.

Thanks so much for the confirmation.

Since the Veloce groupset has the rounded hoods, it seems that the bike must be from '98 or after.

Are these bikes only considered Art Decor if they have the wording 'Decor' on them?
