Colnago V3

Colnago V3 Rival AXS Disc Road Bike perfectly balances stiffness, weight and compliance, offering precise handling and a racy feel. Updates from the previous V models include a redesigned fork that maximises compatibility with disc brakes and wider tyres, a new geometry that uses a shorter head tube and lower bottom bracket, plus a seatpost clamp that’s lighter and offers more modulated tightening. All of this is brought together in a carbon monocoque frameset that combines low weight with aerodynamic details. This is a bike that’ll climb, descent, sprint and handle with equal aplomb.

Equipped with SRAM Rival eTap AXS, the wireless shifting is intuitive and precise, and the refined hydraulic disc brakes powerful. 12-speeds mean a wider range and smaller jumps between gears, and the AXS app makes customisation and monitoring extremely simple.

Fulcrum Racing 600 wheels are a great all-rounder, robust and reliable, and Pirelli P7 tyres delivery good traction and fast rolling.
