Colnago C59 Italia - MTBK





I bought this frame from BR member markyone at the end of last year and it's in near perfect condition (cheers Mark). The frame was drilled out for an electronic groupset so after a few months of internet wheeling and dealing I managed to build up a Record EPS system. Apart from a wee bit of trial and error with the front mech and a blown charger the build was pretty easy. The complete bike rides like an absolute dream. Everything you read about the C59 is true and the electronic shifting is ridiculously good. I love the RSYS-SLR's too. Stiff as a stiff thing.

Glad you like it Mark! It's the Barfly 2 which is designed to mount EPS and Di2 units underneath. It's slightly recessed and fixed via thin cable ties. Works a treat. Can't wait to see the AD frame :-)

Thank you. This bike was also my first ever self build and I referenced your blog a few times for tips :-)
Bikes don't get much better than the one you've put together imo. Congrats on a fine job.
