Colnago C72 — Perfectly Composed
A New Chapter in Italian Craftsmanship The C72 marks the next evolution of the legendary C‑Series — a bike created not to chase extremes, but to achieve the perfect balance of performance, comfort, and timeless design. Hand‑built in Italy and limited to just 3,000 frames per year, it represents the purest expression of Colnago’s heritage.
Colnago Heritage: The Legacy Behind the C72
A Legacy Unlike Any Other
For decades, the C‑Series has stood apart from the mainstream.
Each model is introduced only when Colnago decides it is time to redefine its own benchmark.
The C72 continues this tradition with:
- Hand‑built Italian construction
- Multi‑piece carbon architecture
- Timeless design language
- A ride feel that is uniquely Colnago
Perfectly Composed
The C72 is not a bike built around a single extreme.
It is a bike where every element is in harmony — structure, materials, geometry, and design working together as one.
The result is performance that feels natural, intuitive, and beautifully balanced.
Made in Italy
Hand‑Built Precision in Every Frame
Crafted Under One Roof
Every C72 frame is produced entirely in Italy:
- Tube bonding & assembly — Cambiago
- Hand‑finishing — Cambiago
- Airbrush painting — Pisa
- Final assembly & QC — Cambiago
This level of craftsmanship is why production is intentionally limited.
A C72 cannot be rushed.
A New Design Language
The C72 introduces a refined approach to modular construction.
Instead of hiding the lugs, Colnago celebrates them with automotive‑grade panel‑gap precision.
Every junction is sculpted, aligned, and shaped to create a frame that looks as premium as it rides.
Integrated Components
The C72 introduces several new features designed for both performance and practicality:
- CC.02 Integrated Cockpit — lighter, more stable, more ergonomic
- Integrated Storage Box — hidden beneath the bottle cage
- New Aerodynamic Seatpost — refined shape and improved clamping
- Custom Carbon Bottle Cage — patent‑pending structure
These elements create a bike that is clean, modern, and beautifully functional.
A Ride Like No Other
The C72 adapts to your needs — fast when you push it, stable when you need confidence, and comfortable on long rides.
Ride Characteristics
- Front‑end stability at high speed
- Sharp, precise handling
- Instant acceleration
- Improved compliance
- Wider tyre clearance for all‑road versatility
This is a bike built to unlock the best in every ride.
Modern Geometry
Balanced Geometry for Every Rider
The C72 offers a fast yet adaptable fit:
- Increased stack‑to‑reach ratio
- Steeper steering angle
- Longer fork rake
- Seven sizes: 420 / 455 / 485 / 510 / 530 / 550 / 570
Whether you prefer endurance comfort or a low racing position, the C72 accommodates both.
Performance — Perfectly Composed
The C72 is more than a new model.
It is the continuation of a legacy — a celebration of Italian craftsmanship, modular construction, and the pursuit of perfect balance.
For riders who want the most authentic expression of Colnago’s DNA, the C72 stands alone.
