The Colnago C68 is celebrated as one of the best bicycle frames for several key reasons:

1. Advanced Carbon Technology: The C68 utilizes Colnago’s latest carbon fiber technology, which combines high modulus and high strength materials. This results in a frame that is both lightweight and incredibly stiff, ensuring optimal power transfer while maintaining a comfortable ride.

2. Modular Design: The C68 features a modular construction that allows for easy customization and repair. This design philosophy not only enhances the frame’s versatility but also extends its lifespan, as individual sections can be replaced if damaged.

3. Improved Aerodynamics: The frame is designed with aerodynamics in mind, incorporating features that reduce drag and improve overall performance. The sleek lines and integrated cable routing contribute to a more aerodynamic profile, making it suitable for competitive racing.

4. Comfort and Ride Quality: Despite its performance-oriented design, the C68 prioritizes rider comfort. The frame’s construction helps absorb road vibrations, providing a smoother ride over various terrains, which is especially beneficial for long-distance cycling.

5. Heritage and Craftsmanship: As with all Colnago C series bikes, the C68 is handcrafted in Italy, reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality and attention to detail. This heritage adds a level of prestige and trust in the craftsmanship of the frame.

6. Versatile Geometry: The C68 features a geometry that balances responsiveness and stability, making it suitable for a wide range of riding styles, from competitive racing to endurance rides. This versatility appeals to both amateur and professional cyclists.

7. Customization Options: Colnago offers various customization options for the C68, allowing riders to tailor the frame to their specific preferences in terms of size, color, and component compatibility. This personalization enhances the overall riding experience.

8. Proven Performance: The C68 has been tested and endorsed by professional cyclists, showcasing its reliability and performance in competitive environments. This real-world validation reinforces its reputation as a top-tier frame.

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.
