All new from Colnago for 2009: the CX-1. Whether you are looking to climb, sprint or just take a spin, the CX-1 is designed to be ridden. The ride quality of a Colnago is unmatched, and people who ride Colnago’s understand that.
This year, Colnago is looking to enlighten a new generation by introducing the Colnago CX-1. The CX-1 was designed to appease racers looking for more aggressive ride. A carbon monocoque front triangle, polygon profile, and massive bottom bracket and chainstays yield cycling’s Holy Grail. Supple vibration absorption, straight-line stiffness and light weight.
The new CX-1 uses both high modulus composite and high-strength unidirectional composite with a 3k twill finish. During the development of the CX-1, thanks to 3D design and Finite Element Analysis, Colnago created an extremely accurate, optimized carbon fiber composite lay-up in the key zones where force is transmitted to the road for incredible performance and handling.
The Cx-1 is the lightest Colnago ever produced. In 2009 you will see many of Colnago’s Pro Tour riders on the CX-1.
The CX-1 combines old world Italian artistry and craftsmanship with unrelenting attention to detail and innovative new technology. The flattening of the top tube provides extra stiffness yet disperses extraneous road vibration. The chainstay and seatstay are specially molded to optimize overall torsional and lateral rigidity. And the carbon lay-up process is precisely engineered to optimize the material’s strength in areas where power is transmitted to the road. The new frame also features a semi-integrated C-HS/Colnago Headset System, which allows easier disassembly and maintenance without removing the entire headset.
