The Colnago C72 Dura-Ace Di2 Bike is the latest evolution of a lineage that changed professional cycling. Colnago introduced carbon frames to the peloton in the early 1990s — and the C Series has been hand-built in Italy ever since. The C72 carries that tradition forward with a frame constructed from 7 modular carbon parts, bonded and finished by hand across three Italian workshops: tube production in Pordenone, assembly in Cambiago, airbrush painting in Cascina. At 895g for a size 48.5 unpainted frame — 30g lighter than the C68 — and a complete build capable of reaching 6.8kg, the weight savings are real. But the frame story isn't just about grams.

Colnago describes the C72 as "perfectly composed," and that phrase captures exactly where it sits in the market. This is not the V5Rs — Colnago's pure-race monocoque built for WorldTour power outputs. The C72 is something different: a race bike with the balance dialed toward enjoyment. Snappy and responsive when you push it, stable and refined over distance. The geometry has been updated with a higher stack-to-reach ratio than the C68, giving riders more flexibility in fit and position without abandoning the race stance that defines the C Series. It's UCI homologated. It's built to race. It's also designed to be ridden by people who love riding.
What's new on the C72 goes beyond weight savings. The rear triangle and seat area have been redesigned for improved compliance — road vibration is absorbed more effectively on long or rough efforts. Tire clearance opens to 35mm (nominal), giving you meaningful options for grip and comfort without sacrificing speed. There's also a hidden storage compartment beneath the down-tube bottle cage: twist the tab, lift the cage, and a sealed compartment opens up for a link, gel, or CO2. These details add up on long days in the saddle.
