Yes, double Wow! I was guessing (with a friend who was also watching that auction) that it would go for at least $2500.00. But that $4K is way over any previous similar Colnago I have seen at auction. It is an amazingly original and unscathed bike, and I am glad to see there are enthusiastic bidders out there.. Be fun to know who bought it and on what Continent.?

Don't know if you all were following this auction--180401718652--for a nice 71 Colnago with lots of pantographed parts, but it went for over 4k.
There was much discussion a few weeks ago about plunging or tepid values for vintage bikes.? This seems quite counter to that view.
Interested in what the Colnago experts think.? I loved the bike.? Very classy.
