2012 Colnago Bicycles

TCR is proud to a dealer for one of the finest bike manufacturers in the world. We believe that Colnago is one of the finest bike manufacturer's in the world. We fully support Ernesto Colnago's opinion that the frame is the "soul of the bike." Determining the proper frame and size is crucial to building a bike that rides comfortably and performs well. With over 59 years of bike building and bike racing experience, Colnago knows how to build frames that provide tremendous power transfer yet allow for the legendary Colnago ride and handling.

The bike company has more professional cycling victories than any other company in the world. In addition, Colnago is the only bike company in the world that has ISO 9001 certification for quality control.

C59 Italia *$5899 USD (frame set only)

The C59 Italia is the pinnacle of the 2012 Colnago range. A custom made 100% carbon fibre racing machine designed, built and painted in Italy. With a frame weighing approximately 1000g it features an internally ribbed top tube shaped similar to the iconic Colnago Master frame. Frame efficiency is further increased by the use of specific square section chainstays and seatstays.

Two versions are available: One for electronic shifting systems such as Shimano Di2, and one for traditional mechanical shifting systems. Small features on each type of frame are changed subtly to ensure that the ride quality, performance and reliability are identical, no matter which one you choose.

Light, strong and efficient it is made to fit you perfectly and is the result of decades of experience and knowledge in producing lugged carbon fibre bicycle chassis. This allows the Colnago engineering knowledge and vast levels of experience to be applied to every rider of a C59 Italia, ensuring you are rewarded with a ride that is beyond comparison.

 

M10 *$4499 USD (frame set only)

The M10 features a monocoque frame and shares the top spot of the Colnago range together with the C59 Italia. New lamination technology and composite materials used in the manufacturing process of the M10 make it lighter, whilst also being stiffer laterally. This is also partly due to the increased bottom bracket size, but the frame also features increased vertical absorption to provide more comfort and yet deliver greater performance.

With the C-HS1 tapered headtube and a new fork, the M10 is designed to be precise on descents and smoother through corners. Internal cable routing for clean lines complements the M10's classic Colnago design, and the frame is available in two versions: One for Di2 electronic groupsests, and one for traditional mechanical groupsets. This allows Colnago to offer the perfect solution to your needs, without sacrificing any reliability or performance.

EPQ *$5499 USD (frame set only)

The EPQ is an evolution of the previous (and almost countless race winning) EPS. It strikes a balance between tradition and the natural Colnago evolution of the bicycle to be faster, lighter, stronger.

The round section tubing of the front triangle of the frame manages to keep the lateral stiffness required in a performance frame whilst at the same time allowing the frame to offer a more comfortable ride quality than the C59 Italia. Available in three different colours and twenty-two different sizes, plus the "tailor made" option.

CX-1 Evo *$3399 USD (frame set only)

*$6299 (Ultegra Di2 Complete Bike)

*$4799 (Ultegra Complete Bike)

CX-1 Evo is a true modern classic. Already a winner of multiple stages at the Giro d'Italia, Tour de France and Paris-Nice, CX-1 Evo has a brand-new look for the 2012 season.

The bike is designed with a monocoque front triangle with polygonal cross-section tubes moulded in one piece, combined with the square cross-section chainstays to maximize stiffness and give precise manoeuvrability.The main new feature on the CX-1 Evo is the choice of frame for a mechanical or electronic groupset. The rear brake cable routing is now internal, while the mechanical groupsets cabling remain external, under the down tube. The frame is available in 8 sizes.

CLX 3.0 $2299 USD (frame set only)

*$5249 (Ultegra Di2 Complete Bike)

*$3749 (Ultegra Complete Bike)

CLX 3.0 frame is completely new in 2012. The monocoque front triangle has many new features: internal routing of the rear brake cable, new different section C-HS1 headset system and a new fork made to work perfectly in combination with the new headset.

The square chainstays have been developed following the design outlook of the whole Colnago range, having a square shaped cross section to guarantee more stiffness for greater pedalling efficiency.

The best news is the possibility to have it with the electronic Di2 groupset. It will be available in 8 different sloping sizes. CLX 3.0, quality and excellence from Colnago.

Master X-Light *$3299 USD (frame set only)

First produced in the mid-1980s, the Master is a perennial favourite. It is the fruit of Colnago's extensive experience in steel tubing, welding, and lugged frame construction techniques. It's entirely designed, made and chromium plated in Italy with DT15V steel.

The Master offers supreme comfort thanks to the ride quality offered by the custom drawn steel tubing. The star-shaped tubes and chromed lugs combined with a 1-inch chrome plated steel Precisa fork make it a classic and truly elegant bicycle that offers a ride unlike anything else. Available in 16 sizes and three colour variations.

Flight *$3399 USD (frame set only)

Used with impressive results by five Colnago professional teams, the Flight guarantees pure speed.

Designed entirely in Italy using advanced computational fluid dynamics techniques and tested in the Milan Politecnico university wind tunnel to refine the overall aerodynamic performance without sacrificing its efficiency as a bicycle.

The flight can be set up with a forward triathlon position or a more traditional road position.

Prestige Cross *$2899 USD (frame set only)

Developed with input from cycle-cross legend Sven Nys, the Cross Prestige is the ultimate carbon fibre cross frame. A monocoque front triangle makes it tough and light, while lugged seatstays and chainstays maximise tyre clearance.

The lightness will also be appreciated when shouldering the Cross Prestige, as will the unique support between the top tube and seat tube developed at Sven Nys's request to increase carrying comfort when on the shoulder.

World Cup Cross $1899 USD (complete bike)

The World Cup is Colnago's solution for riders who enjoy the thrills and spills of cycle-cross. The World Cup's double-butted 6000 series aluminium alloy tubes are light but strong and shaped for greater stiffness.

This makes for a fast, sure-handling ride that can deal with the inevitable hits that racing off-road in mud and snow is bound to bring. Clean lines and simple tube shapes ensure plenty of mud clearance and reliability season after season.

Ace $3099 USD (complete bike)

The Ace offers head-turning style with spine-saving comfort. Specifically designed to provide an easy ride for Gran Fondo riders and those who are just starting to take their cycling seriously the Ace provides a more upright and comfortable position than our standard geometries.

The frame is a carbon fibre monocoque and features round main tubes and square chainstays. The study of cross-sections, combined with a careful analysis of the layout of the carbon fibres has made it possible to maximise comfort without compromising lateral stiffness for performance and riding pleasure. Available in 8 sloping sizes and two colour variations.

Air 105 $1999 USD (complete bike)

Air represents the evolution from the previous Arte 2.0 model. It represents an excellent blend between the shock-absorbing comfort of carbon with the responsive rigidity of aluminium, offering perfect performance for long days in the saddle.

The brand new hydroformed 6000 series alloy front triangle has polygonal cross section top tube and a hexagonal cross section down tube, to ensure confident handling and rigidity without sacrificing the smooth ride.

Twenty IX – MTB $2349 USD (complete bike)

Twenty IX is this seasons best bet. Hydroformed 6000 series aluminium alloy tubing, hybrid bearing headset system, rear disc brake option, press fit Shimano bottom bracket, and Rock Shox Reba RL front fork make this 29er smooth and quick.
