Colnago C68 All Road - BLACK (HADK)
R 402,873.00
It is a road bike, but also a light gravel bike. It is Colnago's first model designed to be smooth and easy to ride on both asphalt and dirt roads.
Handmade in Italy. The savoir-faire of the same hands that made the bikes of the greatest champions in cycling history continues in a model that is already a classic.
An art jealously guarded and handed down. The tradition of modular carbon frames began at Colnago in the early 1990s. Colnago was the first brand in cycling history to introduce carbon frames to professional teams, winning a technically demanding race like the Paris Roubaix with the legendary C40.
We have introduced a new process: banding. The carbon bands are applied manually at the joint between the carbon modules, after which they are filed and polished to achieve the look of a monocoque frame with the best Colnago modular frame properties.
The C68 proudly continues the tradition of the modular frame. The frame is constructed from several carbon parts that are hand-assembled in Italy through joints and interlocks. The number of parts that complete the frame, i.e. 8, is the same as the previous C series (C64).
The tradition of modular carbon frames began at Colnago in the early 1990s. Colnago was the first brand in cycling history to introduce carbon frames to professional teams, winning a technically demanding race like the Paris Roubaix with the legendary C40.
The smaller moulds of the individual modules allow us to work with greater care and obtain the highest quality carbon parts.
Product Features
The C68 Allroad is for those who see cycling as everyday exploration. It has space for tyres up to 35 mm and geometry designed for better handling on dirt roads and comfort on longer tours.
Tyres up to 35 mm Thanks to reinforced lower chainstays, the new C68 Allroad can accommodate wider tyres, up to 35 mm, for both road and gravel.
T47 bottom bracket Bearings with a larger diameter than the previous standard T45 have improved durability and reduced rolling friction.
Rigidity and steering precision with the new steerer tube The larger diameter compared to the C64 allows greater rigidity and a better feeling of safety when riding on more technical trails.
Allroad geometries The bike has a higher stack and shorter reach than its road counterpart. It is perfect for anyone looking for a shorter and higher riding position, as well as improved rideability on rough roads and greater comfort over long distances.
Integrated multitool Sooner or later, everyone needs a multitool to deal with any small adjustments that may be necessary during a ride (such as a flat tyre). We have integrated this tool into the top cap of the headset.
