Colnago Arabesque w/ Campy Super Record 50th: Built by Ernesto? Internal Routing & Top Mount Shifters - Chrome
Posted by Zella Rayne on 27th Sep 2023
First glance at a very special & still in progress bike! I originally built this bike up for a customer and ended up buying it from them. They had intended to ride it, thus the modern tires and odd saddle (improvements coming!). Bre Rue of Hifi Wheels built it up and built the wheels. She talked to Alex Colnago who says this bike is a custom model and very likely built by Ernesto Colnago as he was building all the customs in that era. It has a couple unique features that were not found on the Arabesque bikes. 1) internal routing for both shift and brake cables and 2) aero-style top of downtube mount for shifters. There is no frame number present.
This bike will be completed and listed for sale soon!
