Colnago information??

Greetings all

Does anyone have a link to a website that lists the various models of Colnago bicycles over the years and perhaps a commentary on the pluses and minuses of each? Say the difference between a Mexico and a Master vrs a Super and a classic and so forth? Other than paint and when listed the various frame materials it is difficult to see the differences. Thank you in advance

Chris

You're not the only one having a hard time telling a Mexico from a Super. Check out:

Masters use the shaped Columbus "Gilco" tubing and should have a Columbus decal identifying the tubeset as such. The tubes are not crimped but rather drawn in that shape by Columbus.
