Hi everyone, I recently acquired this bicycle. It was shipped from Italy and looked to have been sitting unused for quite some time, due to general dust and wear.
From the decals I'm guessing this is some kind of promotional joint venture between Colnago and the World Cup. I'm guessing the year of manufacture is 89 or 90, obviously.

Most of the components are generally Shimano SIS (shimano index shifting),
besides the ofmega bio-pace style cranks and the italian flag grips.
As you can see from the pictures it has a wide wheelbase, is a bit of a beater and is real cool.
I'm more curious about the history of the bike than the worth but any input would be appreciated.
