Yes, I've gone crazy about Colnago and Campagnolo, haha. There's no cure either!

Thanks nenad for the copy of the '89 catalogue - I did spend some time looking at the photos and reading the information. It was interesting to see the Super Sprint frame without the tubing decal as you point out. And, in 1989, all the frames (except one) had 'horizontal' rear dropouts and Syncro gear changing systems were used whether Shimano or Campagnolo.

I have 3 of these bikes featured within the catalogue (Masterpiu, Conic SLX and Super) and it was interesting to see them all in one catalogue. I date mine a year or two newer but they are virtually the same. I also have an older Superissimo and an older Mexico and a couple of newer models. I actually have 7 Colnago's as Colnago was THE brand I really wanted but never could afford when I was younger - now - I've gone crazy, haha. One for every day of the week.

When I see your frame and can feel your love for your frame I do get a great 'vibe' from this whole 'detective' story and feel quite privileged to have taken just a little part in your process - thank you. Also, congratulations on your research and quest to find answers. I have been learning about Colnago since the early 1980's and I must admit to learning from your research so thanks for sharing this information - very much appreciated.

I see you already have some really desirable bikes/frames within your collection. I have looked at your photos with a great deal of interest. Your Colnago frame is beautiful and something tells me that you are it's perfect owner. I wonder where you and this frame will go from here? Best wishes.

Now, something a little personal, sorry. Your written English is fantastic. Are you English or a native Pole? You don't have to answer, it's just that I am impressed. The reason I ask is that I used to be a school teacher and I once had an exchange student from Poland who had a really good grasp of english. He was a very engaging student with a desire to learn.
