COLNAGO C68
C68 DISC FRAMESET INFORMATION
The Colnago C68 represents the pinnacle of Colnago’s world class craftsmanship. A long lineage of C-series road bikes has proven that Colnago is one of the best manufacturers on the planet, and they improved yet again with the C68. 68 represents how far Colnago has come since their inception in 1958. This professional-level road bike is lighter and stiffer than its predecessors and even improves in terms of comfort. The C68 is made entirely in Italy, benefitting from that classic Italian craftsmanship that dominates the cycling industry. With the Colnago C68, you can count on road performance in all areas.
As always, the C68 frame is incredibly light and a great climber. This version comes in at just 925 grams in a size 48.5, giving you everything you need to conquer the mountains. Ultra-high modulus carbon was used to make the frame, making it stiffer than ever in addition to its lightweight improvements. The new split headtube is stronger, lighter, and more customizable. With more options for stack and reach variations than ever, riders can find their ideal fit. It also helps improve stiffness, making the C68 a capable sprinter and not just a climbing machine. The new frame construction of the Colnago C68 has it performing better than ever.
The fork of the Colnago C68 has been redesigned and improved. The “D” shape has been replaced with a simpler 1 1/8-inch lightweight round tube. A special headset system pairs with the fork to make it easier than ever to internally rout cables. The top cap even features an integrated multitool for adjustments on a long ride. The bottom bracket has also been revised to a more standard and easier to find T47 BB. It still has an oversized shell and internal bearings but offers a wider range of compatibility. The Colnago C68 represents the evolution and improvement of
TECHNICAL DETAILS
FRAMESET
FORK
The fork changes from the previous TFS 'D' shape with the complex internal rib and the full length bonded metal thread bolt for a much simpler, elegant and lighter round 1"1/8 tube.
To run the brake housing inside we have adopted a special patented eccentric headset system, without having to use the larger cumbersome and heavy 1.5" bearing.
BOTTOM BRACKET
The C68 now boosts a revised bottom bracket, with the switch from our previous TF82.5 to a more "standard" and easy to find T47.
The system works the same way, with an oversized bb shell and internal bearings housed in alloy threaded cups.
You can assemble your C68 with a standard BB from Sram and Campagnolo, while you can use premium products such as CeramicSpeed, Chris King and many other offerings for compatibility with Shimano 24mm axles.
OTHER FEATURES
The frame weight for a raw size 485 is around 925gr, just 10gr more (935gr) for the titanium version.
FROM LUGS TO PARTS
The number of parts that complete the frame is the same as with the previous C series (C64).
Even though from an aesthetics point of view, its lines and styling may be more similar to that of a frame manufactured in one piece.
There are still some visible joints on the C68 to trace back to our root, while other joints would appear invisible due to the new streamlined design.
HEADTUBE
The new split headtube is now stronger, lighter and more customizable than ever.
The new layout allows stack and reach variations, along with improved stiffness for an enhanced riding experience.
INTEGRATED MULTITOOL
Returning to a round steerer tube allows us to put a touch of "we ride too" into the bike.
Everyone needs, at some point, a multitool to face every small adjustment that may be required during an epic or not so epic ride (like a flat tire).
So we integrated that tool into the headset top cap.
Rotate and pull, that's it.
