Wow

Perfect colors and proportions!!

Those wheels are very complimentary----that's a bike to stare at in a hypnotic trance in your living room. You've got me dreaming in Italian now.

Congrats, you nailed it. The quill stem + classic bars is just perfect on this. I personally think that the saddle fits here and do like the look! I used to have the Molteni coloured master that ernesto did a couple of years back and I still regret letting it go to this day

[kbbpll]

That is one beautiful machine.
Later, in winter perhaps, you might get a kick out of building it up with your SR11. My cousin and I both did our 2010's like that, and the combo of classic (or should I say timeless) Italian steel and top-line groupo... to me, wow. I can understand if you're sticking with a certain concept though.
Get used to people saying "Beautiful bike! How old is it?".

[SalsaLover]

Thanks guys,

Yes, I still leave open the possibility of rebuilding it on R11 or SR11, I have them new in boxes, for that of maybe the SR11 for the coming C59 on AD10.

But well, what I wanted on this Master is to have a full metal equivalent of my C-50 and that goal is met , you never know maybe on a not so distant day, Campagnolo surprises us with an special edition all silver high end groupset.

For the time being it looks and performs really good on this centaur UT/US.

And about the C59 AD10 I am looking forward to see it in the flesh at Eurobike this August.

HOLY FUUUUUU!!! That is great! Those paint jobs are just incredible.

Beautiful build! How did you swing the threaded fork??? I am very close to doing a similar build after having bought a Master Light 59cm that was a bit too large. Is this a 56? How tall are you and what is the distance from the BB to the top of the saddle?

[SalsaLover]

I use 74.5 cm from center of BB to the saddle top intersection following the seatpost line

Hello there, a noob here. Came across this post when researching about building a Colnago Master.

For the Campagnolo Record threaded headset that you are using, is it a standard 1-inch? Or does it come in other sizes?

[SalsaLover]

It is 1 inch,

The regular Master comes with a non threaded fork.

I specially ordered mine with a threaded fork.

[azzamac]

I see. Thank you for the information. If i need a non-threaded fork, where can I get one?

[SalsaLover]

you mean, to buy the fork only ?

it would depend on where you are located, I have seen some online shops who have them like totalcycling.co.uk

It's very expensive as a spare though.

[azzamac]

Oops, sorry, i meant a threaded fork. Typed too fast earlier.

Love your Master set-up! Can i find out what size your Master is, and also the length of the threaded fork you are using for it?
