Colnago Sport/Super Sprint from the 90s?
Hello all,
I came across this bike and I was thinking what is the model and if it worth the value?
From what I researched it seems to be a Colnago Super Sprint made after '91 with a Shimano 600 Tricolor groupset. Also I hadn't find any Colnago bike with those kind of decals.
The color looks like a custom paint job (the Columbus Riverniciato sticker).
The seller asks for 450$? What do you think? Should I risk it or should I wait?

"Riverniciato" is Italian for "repainted." I've never seen a decal like that before, but it would seem to be an honest admission of a repaint.
Looks like a nice frame.

I would agree that it is a Sprint with a very nice professional repaint. For a nice Colonago even with the repaint and mid level Shimano compnents it is worth $450-500 maybe a bit more depending on market so the price is fine.
