Colnago C72 Dura-Ace Di2 Bike
Colnago C72 Dura-Ace Di2 Bike Info
The Colnago C72 Dura-Ace Di2 Bike is the latest evolution of a lineage that changed professional cycling. Colnago introduced carbon frames to the peloton in the early 1990s — and the C Series has been hand-built in Italy ever since. The C72 carries that tradition forward with a frame constructed from 7 modular carbon parts, bonded and finished by hand across three Italian workshops: tube production in Pordenone, assembly in Cambiago, airbrush painting in Cascina. At 895g for a size 48.5 unpainted frame — 30g lighter than the C68 — and a complete build capable of reaching 6.8kg, the weight savings are real. But the frame story isn't just about grams.
Colnago describes the C72 as "perfectly composed," and that phrase captures exactly where it sits in the market. This is not the V5Rs — Colnago's pure-race monocoque built for WorldTour power outputs. The C72 is something different: a race bike with the balance dialed toward enjoyment. Snappy and responsive when you push it, stable and refined over distance. The geometry has been updated with a higher stack-to-reach ratio than the C68, giving riders more flexibility in fit and position without abandoning the race stance that defines the C Series. It's UCI homologated. It's built to race. It's also designed to be ridden by people who love riding.
What's new on the C72 goes beyond weight savings. The rear triangle and seat area have been redesigned for improved compliance — road vibration is absorbed more effectively on long or rough efforts. Tire clearance opens to 35mm (nominal), giving you meaningful options for grip and comfort without sacrificing speed. There's also a hidden storage compartment beneath the down-tube bottle cage: twist the tab, lift the cage, and a sealed compartment opens up for a link, gel, or CO2. These details add up on long days in the saddle.
Design Benefits
- Modular carbon construction, hand-built in Italy. The 7-part frame isn't just a nod to tradition — it's a technical advantage. Smaller moulds allow tighter quality control over each individual carbon part, and every joint is hand-assembled and finished at Colnago's Cambiago facility. The panel-gap aesthetic at each lug junction is a deliberate design choice: precise alignment that signals the quality of what's underneath. This is why C Series frames have been trusted by professional teams since the C40 won Paris-Roubaix in the 1990s.
- Full Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 groupset. The R9270 hydraulic disc calipers deliver consistent, modulated stopping power in any condition. Electronic shifting via the R9250 derailleurs means perfectly repeatable, fatigue-free gear changes across the full 12-speed range. The 52/36 chainring combination with an 11-30 cassette covers everything from rolling terrain to real climbs without compromise.
- ENVE SES 4.5 wheels with Pirelli tubeless tires. ENVE's SES 4.5 is a balanced all-conditions road wheel — fast in calm air, stable when the wind picks up. Paired with Pirelli P Zero Race TLR 700x28, the package runs tubeless-ready and offers the grip and compliance you want on a bike you'll ride hard and ride often.
- CC.02 Integrated Cockpit. Colnago's second-generation bar and stem unit introduces a revised curve profile that allows a more aggressive position at lower bar heights, with improved brake lever access in the drops. Internal cable routing keeps the front end completely clean. It's 15g lighter than the CC.01. Note: the CC.02 is a fixed integrated unit, so confirming your position before ordering is essential — we recommend a fit before purchase.
- Blockchain ownership registration. Register your C72 through the Colnago app within 30 days of purchase and the warranty extends from 2 to 3 years. The registration also creates a permanent, verifiable ownership record — useful for insurance, resale, and theft recovery.
Final Take
The C72 Dura-Ace Di2 is the bike Colnago builds for riders who want to race — and who want to enjoy every kilometer getting there. Hand-built in Italy with the modular carbon craft that has defined the C Series for three decades, equipped with the top of Shimano's electronic disc groupset, and rolling on ENVE's most versatile road wheel, this is a complete, uncompromising road bike. Seven sizes and four colorways mean there's a configuration for nearly every rider. If you want the C Series experience — Italian craftsmanship, a ride that rewards attention, and a bike that will still feel relevant in ten years — the C72 delivers exactly what it promises.
