Everyone likes a Colnago. Their cloverleaf logo is one of the most recognised symbols in the cycling world. Even if you don’t own one nor have any desire to buy one, you have to recognise their place in cycling history and the fantastic way that they constantly innovate to push bike technology forward. So prompted by the CX Zero article, here’s some gratuitous photos of Colnago bicycles from the Windwave stand at the Orbital Cycling Festival, just for the sake of it… Enjoy!
