Colnago is one of the most iconic brands in cycling, and every product the company makes has the history of a grand tour and world championship-winning bike behind it. New releases have to live up to that standard.
The goal for the C68 Gravel was to design a bike that prioritizes compliance and capability over absolute speed. It’s still a bike that can be raced, but that’s not its sole purpose. Compared to the G3-X, which is Colnago’s race-specific gravel bike and from which the C68 derives its geometry, it is slightly shorter and taller, and has more durable carbon integrated into key areas to better hold up to rock-strikes and crashes.
