Colnago Super Sport

[PHL67]

just picked this up today.

Needs work but will look nice when done.

Definitely a keeper ( made need to extend my workshop?).

Noice! Looks quite a ‘basic’ model by Colnago standards....
What’s the Tubing?

 

[PHL67]

Columbus Aelle.

 

[carpenter]

nothing wrong with that

 

[Cycleops]

That looks very similar to one I bought down here for fifteen quid , (frame only), it had the same chromed chain stay but forks also chromed, same Aele tubing too which is quite heavy. Its an entry level model but non the worse for that.
If you look at the number under the bb you will get the date, mine was '89..
I should think you do need extra room in your workshop for all these bikes. Be careful though as you might get a request for it to large enough to accommodate a bed .
Managed to find a pic.

Looks like a Falcon in the background ?

I would say it's the same model as well

Shouldn't really be in the same pic as a a Colnago .

I think it was only the Sport that had 3 cable guides on the top tube. More upmarket ones only had two..... Silly really as the cable never looked right with just 2

Quite different fork crowns though. I’d say @Cycleops is a bit more up-market.

OP's is older, look at the cable guides for both.

I don't think the fork's on @Cycleops were the original ones

Ah, OK!
