Colnago C68 Gravel Frameset

The Colnago C68 Gravel Frameset is designed for riders who seek the thrill of speed on the roughest dirt roads but demand more than a simple carbon frame. This is a bike with soul, steeped in tradition and handmade in Italy by the master craftsmen of Cambiago. Continuing Colnago's legendary modular frame construction that began with the iconic C40 in the early 1990s, the C68 Gravel combines time-honored Italian craftsmanship with modern gravel performance.

Built around deliberate design choices that prioritize speed and precision, the C68 Gravel accommodates tires up to 42mm, the optimal balance between fast rolling and technical capability without sacrificing the snappy, responsive handling that defines Colnago's racing DNA. The bolder gravel geometry features longer reach and higher stack compared to competitors, delivering an ergonomically superior riding experience perfectly tuned for challenging terrain while maintaining an aggressive, performance-oriented position.

The modular construction involves hand-assembled carbon modules joined through interlocks and carbon banding, a new process where carbon bands are manually applied at joints, then filed and polished to achieve a monocoque appearance with superior structural properties. Smaller molds for individual modules allow greater precision and the highest quality carbon layup. 

Perfect for riders who value heritage craftsmanship and uncompromising performance, the C68 Gravel offers suspension fork compatibility, three mounting points for bottles and bags, and includes the CC.01 Wide handlebar with increased flare for superior control on technical terrain. Every frame is hand-painted using airbrush techniques and assembled at Colnago's Cambiago facility, the same hands that built bikes for cycling's greatest champions.
