here another replica of my small collection
the 1992/1993 Ceramiche ARIOSTEA teambike based on a Colnago Carbitubo

Wow, another absolute stunner! I never realised that the bar tape and frame highlight didn't match, the fluo doesn't show in the old photos and I always thought it was just yellow. Looks a bit strange and "not correct", but if that's what they were really like, then authenticity is more important than matching colours!

 

[gridno27]

it's a question of the light ... here another pic ... where you can see the different coulouring

 

[foz]

Yes it's easier to see in that photo, thanks! Maybe fluo bartape wasn't available at the time? I always liked the jersey when I was a kid, never had one though. Are they standard yellow, or fluo?

 

[gridno27]

I have a set ...the jersey is a standard yellow

Very nice machine

Beautiful bike, congratulations. And another one for the courage to set it up on top of that rock - can't imagine what would be with a dust of wind....

Great looking machine... would I be right in saying that ALAN lugs and dropouts were used on the Colnago?

 

[gridno27]

Yes indeed you are right - ALAN supported Colnage within the development and manufacturing of the Carbitubo - here is the story about

Great looking bike. The photo is tainted unfortunatly. The Örn fra Herning consumed something other than a popular energy drink to give him wings.
