Description
Colnago C68-R Vuelta Ltd Edition Carbon Road Bike Dura Ace Di2
The Colnago C68 Rossa Vuelta Limited Edition is a rare performance road bike inspired by the passion and spectacle of the Vuelta a España. Limited to just 90 individually numbered bikes, it combines Italian craftsmanship with top-tier racing technology. The distinctive Candy Red finish with hand-applied silver metal leaf celebrates the meeting of Italian design and Spanish cycling heritage.
Frame and Design
The C68 features Colnago’s signature modular carbon construction, made from eight bonded carbon sections to deliver exceptional stiffness, precision handling and long-distance comfort. Internal cable routing and an integrated cockpit create a clean aerodynamic profile, while the D-shape carbon seatpost and high-quality bearings ensure a smooth and responsive ride.
Drivetrain and Performance
Equipped with Shimano Dura-Ace R9270 Di2 12-speed electronic shifting, the bike delivers fast, precise gear changes under all conditions. The drivetrain is further enhanced with CeramicSpeed oversized pulley wheels and custom Carbon-Ti chainrings for improved efficiency and reduced friction.
Wheels and Braking
ENVE SES 4.5 carbon wheels, hand-spoked in Italy for this limited edition, provide an aerodynamic balance ideal for climbing, sprinting and high-speed riding. Paired with Pirelli P Zero Race TLR tyres and Shimano Dura-Ace hydraulic disc brakes, the setup offers exceptional grip, control and confident braking performance.
Exclusive Finishing Details
Special touches include a Prologo Nago R4 saddle, Colnago integrated cockpit with La Vuelta branding, and a limited-edition bottle cage inspired by the La Vuelta trophy. Each bike also comes with a Colnago bike cover and collector’s booklet, reinforcing its status as a true collector’s piece.
