There's an interesting looking Colango on ebay that appears to be about a
975 or so model that is branded "Ernesto".
There's only a few small photos that do not show much detail, but the seller
aid he would e-mail me more pics.
Is anyone familiar with this branding and the significance of it?

I have another interesting Colnago I am selling for a friend. It is a Colnago Sports. I understand that was a lesser model he made at one time. Seems nicely made though. No clubs, just triangular cutouts. My friend bought it at L'Eroica this year. Has a 1973 NR derailleur on it and looks about that era. Has HS, BB, and NR front, rear and shifters in workable not pristine condition. Will ask $700 before ebay. Red paint in decent shape but could use a little rubbing. Decals OK. I think size is about 57 to the top. I will take pics soon so inquire if you are interested.
