Any Colnago Guru's on here?

Velonutter

I'm interested in buying this frame at a very good price, but would entail me getting a flight in the UK to fetch.

Can anyone check the frame out from the pictures and confirm if it is genuine?






Many Thanks.

2010 colour scheme, looks genuine to me... if it's not it's a damn good replica!

Thanks just what I wanted to hear, what would you pay for one that was new and unused?

Non replaceable dropouts on a carbon frame? :shock:

I thought that but looked closely on the pictures and saw two painted screws holding the hanger in place, but I stand to be corrected!

Consider a new one retails at 2799, half of that is a good price, but check for offers on 2010-2011 models as well. I suspect the warranty is not valid once the frame changes ownership. A warranty is an agreement between a manufactuer and a buyer via the retailer... a new owner does not have any agreement in place

I have 4 Colnagos and that definitely looks genuine to me.

The main pointer for me is the paint - if the frame were not genuine, who would go to the trouble/expense of a paint job like that?

Enjoy your frame (if you buy it).

Thanks Lads,

I already have a C40 which I will be selling shortly and this would replace my LOOK.

I just hope I can pin the bloke down as I will have to take a flight to collect it!
