Colnago C59 Disc Brake Road Bicycle

Just announced at the Tapei Bike Show. More details about the C59 Disc at Colnago.com. It’s a hot looking number.

Some people are skeptical of the application of hydraulic disc brakes on a road bike. Disc brakes means you can design rims without a braking surface, which means less rotational mass and faster wheels. Much more about this at Road.CC and Bike Rumor.
