[tlambeth]

£1,495

Here is my 2018 Colnago C-RS

Carbon frame size 52s (56cm) see geometry chart.


Campagnolo Chorus 2x11 group set.

50-34 compact chainset running a Shimano Ultegra 11-30 cassette.


Campagnolo Shamal Ultra wheels, Shimano freehub.


Easton carbon aero bars 42cm.


FSA OS99 carbon coated stem 110mm.


2x Campagnolo carbon bottle cages (£70 each).


Vittoria Corsa Grapheme 2.0 tyres.


KMC gold chain.


This bike has taken a couple of years to get to the finished item you see before you, its always been very well maintained and always cleaned and lubricated appropriately.


I know it doesn't have electronic gears or disc brakes, but if you're looking at this and then you know a proper bike from a chopper bike. The C-RS was released as a fast but affordable carbon fibre Colnago to compliment their high-end grand tour bikes.


It rides beautifully and it's a real coffee shop head turner. Colnago sizing is a bit unusual, this is a 52s which equated to a 56cm with conventional sizing, for reference I'm 5'10" 178cm, I would suggest this bike could work for a person 5'9" - 6'0".


Please note: I have modified the seatpost collar with a small washer as the original bolt had slightly damaged the flange, this functions perfectly and you can't even see it. The freehub and cassette are Shimano which works perfectly (99.9%) and Ultegra cassettes last longer than any campagnolo ones, I've never had any shifting issues. The bike will be supplied with the original colnago seatpost and no pedals.


Please get in touch with any questions. Postage will be with Paisley Freight. Item is located in Chagford, Devon.

Not retro enough for me! Don't apologise for it not being eps or whatever it's called. I'll take gear and brake cables that I can change in minutes over all this hidden cables malarkey. And as for disc brakes don't start me.

Must be the last of bicycles that could be maintained by the average person without much in the way of tools and specialist expensive knowledge. If you could change a cable and brake blocks then you had no need to go near a bike shop
A very nice machine though, and nice price too.

He he, yes!! Thanks, it's a great bike and has served me well. Thoroughly modern by our standards, but enough of a nod to the past with the timeless colnago niceness.

I hope I can find her a good home
