Bike Of the Day - Staff Edition: Paul's 2006 Colnago Master Pista
Posted by 2 on
This new addition to Bike of the Day is a bit of a departure from our standard fare. Featured here is my daily downtown driver, the Colnago Master Pista. Built with Columbus Gilco Master Speciali tubing and made for being as sexy as possible on the boards, it has found a new home on Toronto's streets.
