Colnago Master resto.

[SkipdiverJohn]

The paint job on that one above is absolutely stunning and the result is worth every penny of the no doubt considerable cost. Having picked up one of those Master frame & forks myself with nothing but the BB fitted, I couldn't believe how light they are. Lighter than an equivalent Reynolds 531 frame I'd say, and the one I examined had the rather bling full chrome forks with the logo in the crown like the OP's one. One of the nicest frames I've ever encountered, the pinnacle of steel bike design.

Very nice. Did it originally have that colour? I remember some of these with wild multicoloured paint jobs.

You'd probably not want to recreate the original paint if it was one of those wild ones - besides costing the earth, they were VERY early 90s.

This is the sort of thing I remember.

Yep, it is a touch travelling fairground ride (for my taste) .
