Speedcylcels has a 1976 Colnago up for auction on E-bay. This bike illustrates an interesting data point or two to us Colnago psychos. The top tube has no brake cable braze-ons ("yes", you say, "of course, it is a 1976"). The fork crown has both the club/clover as well as "colnago" engraving/forging ("yes"). What I find interesting (which my friends and family would probably think is really screwed up) is that the back of the fork crown does not have the triangle shaped indents. No, these came in 1977!!

A cool bike, I think.

By the way, that $4200 Colnago was awesome. I hope someone on the list got it.
