Colnago Goes Mainstream | V3Rs Superbike, 790g Frame & Dropped Stays

Colnago has launched an all-new flagship monocoque bike called the V3Rs. Succeeding the traditional two-triangle V2-R, the V3Rs adopts the now-universal dropped seatstay design and sheds some weight. It’s available in both rim and disc brake variants and is accompanied by a more affordable model called the V3.

While Colnago continues to make its lugged carbon C64 and C64 Disc in Italy, the company has for years offered a more conventional monocoque (i.e sheets of carbon laid up with epoxy in moulds) all-rounder with a frame manufactured in Asia.

The V3Rs is the latest to take up the mantle, providing an up-to-date lightweight counterpart to the aero-focussed Concept.
