Hey, I’m glad there’s somebody else with the 70s Cologo so I can ask this question. What is the quality of the decals and the placement? I have what I think is also an original Colnago Super and my god do these decals look chintzy.
not under any clear coat, cheaply made and slightly askew.
how is yours?

I bet it's a very nice bike to ride. Good old Colnago's, like yours, always put a silly smile on my face. Love it.

at $100 for that pair you are bought in.
that written one of my Colnagos has a flat, one of those overnight leaks - very frustrating
so I swapped front wheels with my son's bike as it was at hand and he has a casing rupture on the rear Continental... black sidewall...
anodized rim, terrible look, but it functions.
all will be made right with the world tomorrow.
