"The C68 Rossa is handmade in Italy in Colnago's Cambiago workshop (like the C68 gravel we reviewed here), blending the legendary carbon layup technology of the standard C68 with a distinct red-and-gold "Vuelta" paint scheme that honors Spain's celebrated Grand Tour. However, this bike isn't just about looks: it carries the same advanced C68 monocoque frame and fork construction, making it ready for pro-level competition or spirited club rides."
"Colnago's C68 frame construction is 100% carbon monocoque, integrating Colnago's latest in fiber orientation and resin technology to maximize stiffness-to-weight ratio. The Rossa edition uses a unique C68-specific layup, resulting in a frame weight that Colnago claims hovers around 820 grams (size 54), paired with a fork around 360 grams. Colnago offers the C68 Rossa with a complete electronic or mechanical drivetrain, letting riders spec with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, SRAM Red eTap AXS, or Campagnolo Super Record EPS, depending on personal preference."
Colnago released a limited-edition C68 called Rossa Vuelta priced at $26,172 and limited to 90 units. The frame and fork are handmade in Colnago's Cambiago workshop, combining the C68's carbon layup technology with a red-and-gold Vuelta paint scheme. The C68 monocoque frame weighs around 820 grams (size 54) with a fork near 360 grams. Buyers can specify electronic or mechanical drivetrains including Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, SRAM Red eTap AXS, or Campagnolo Super Record EPS. Disc brakes are standard with flat-mount calipers and 12mm thru-axles, and Colnago-branded wheels are included with upgrade options available.
