Restoring a 1985 Colnago Master — From Grime to Gold

Colnago Master Restoration: Reviving a Legendary Italian Steel Road Bike In this video, I restore a true icon of cycling history — the Colnago Master, one of the most legendary road bikes ever built by Colnago, the Italian brand founded by Ernesto Colnago in 1954. The frame is built from Columbus steel tubing in Colnago’s signature star-shaped profile (Gilco Design), paired with the legendary Campagnolo C Record groupset, released in 1984 following the passing of Tullio Campagnolo. Follow along as I strip the bike down to the frame, restore the chrome lugs and fork, revive the original paintwork, rebuild the Campagnolo C Record drivetrain, dial in the Campagnolo Delta brakes, and take it out for a first ride after the full restoration.
