Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Colnago C68-R Disc Carbon Road Bike Frameset HRGG

Colnago C68-R Disc carbon road bike frameset. The pinnacale of Colnago`s craftsmanship

Introducing the new Colnago C68-R

Colnago C68-R Disc Carbon Road Bike Frameset HRBK. Of the entire Colnago range the model that best expresses the concept of ‘handmade in Italy’ is revolutionized while its DNA and the concept of multiple parts are maintained. Shape and refinement process has made it possible to optimize parts including the fork which is now more rigid and lighter and the introduction of T47 bottom bracket standard for easier maintenance.

Techincal details of the Colnago C68-R frameset

The C68 is made using a modular structure which is at the heart of the project and provides its excellence. Bonding the various parts of the frame instead of assembling them inside a mould as happens with monocoque frames still represents a uniqueness that allows for the creation of more sizes as necessary and if desired even a "made to measure" frame thanks to the titanium lugs.

The number of parts that constitute the frame is the same as with the previous C series (C64) even though from an aesthetic point of view its line may be more similar to that of a frame manufactured in one piece. The choice was dictated by the search for a modern look but always remaining desirable to the traditional Colnago customer thus widening the range of purchasing possibilities.

Lighter and more rigid

In addition to being lighter than the C64 in similar sizes, the frame is more rigid especially in the steering area giving better precision while riding. The shape refinement process has also made it possible to optimize some parts of the frame including the fork, now more rigid and lighter than the previous one with an innovative internal cable routing and which thanks to the shape of the new head tube can be built without the current and more complex "D" shape.

CeramicSpeed SLT headset with lifetime guarantee

The C68 will feature a CeramicSpeed SLT (Solid Lubrication Technology) headset guaranteed for life simplifying maintenance and reducing costs in the long term. The headset is composed of two identical bearings made by CeramicSpeed using SLT technology.

1x Drive systems

A new option allows for the removal of the front derailleur support for mounting groups with a single-chainring crankset.

NFC Blockchain

An NFC tag is installed on the C68 inextricably linked to the frame that allows access to information in the digital passport of the bicycle whose data is saved in the blockchain via the Colnago app for ios/Android smartphones.

Please Note
This product is a frameset and not a complete bike. included in the box is a frame, fork seatpost and headset.
The frameset is only compatible with Electronic group sets.

Professional Opinion

T47 Bottom Bracket
From a structural point of view there are some noteworthy differences compared to the predecessor, C64: the bottom bracket, now with the standard T47, has merged with the seat tube while the "top tube" is characterized by the presence of two lugs: one connected with the seat tube, the other with the steering tube. These lugs are integral with each other in the full carbon frame version, but there is the possibility of having these two lugs in titanium alloy.

CC.01 cockpit & CeramicSpeed SLT Headset Bearings
The Colnago C68-R is compatible with the CC.01 cockpit and has the CeramicSpeed SLT headset bearings. SLT Headset bearings (Solid Lubrication Technology) guaranteed for life simplifying maintenance and reducing costs in the long term. The headset is composed of two identical bearings made by CeramicSpeed using SLT technology.

Seatpost/Derailleur Hanger/Axles
The seatpost is still the carbon fiber D-Shape of the latest models. The derailleur hanger, seatpost clamp and axles components are used in C68 version.

1x Drive systems
A new option allows for the removal of the front derailleur support for mounting groups with a single-chainring crankset.
