This is my first post to this wounderful group. I am the one who generated the price increase at the end of bidding and I still did not win. I was interested in the bike because of its original intact condition, size, drilled chain rings (cool) and its early date. Lost that bike and my backup bidding on a 1966 SCHWINN PARAMOUNT on the same day was also outbid. Ended up with nothing, but the future will bring more great bikes to collect and ride. robozoner Rob O'Callaghan Del Mar, Ca

what is there to say?
this is a bad'ass colnago - one of the few
that rates bad'ass points at that. whoa are
the ones that missed this auction owing to
"budgetary" contraints. this 'un is from the
first wave of imported frames - before the
firm evolved into colnago, inc. - not that there's
anything wrong with that.

Yes, I too am wondering what could have been going through the head
of that purchaser of that early '70s Colnago Super with the beautiful
components.
Why, for that kind of money the fool could have a maybe three or
four steps down from the top new Trek! I guess some folks have no
taste.
