Handcrafted in Italy by expert artisans, this frameset leverages Colnago's long-standing expertise in modular lugged frame construction, bringing exceptional craftsmanship into the world of gravel cycling.

Geometry

The reach–stack ratio has been optimized to allow the use of a shorter stem combined with a longer wheelbase. The head tube angle has been reduced to 70.5° across all frame sizes, providing greater stability on rough terrain and enhancing rider confidence in challenging conditions.

The Cockpit

Innovation extends beyond the frame itself. The C68 Gravel features a carbon fork and the new Colnago CC.01 Wide cockpit, specifically designed for gravel riding. The flared handlebar increases control and comfort: for example, a 40 cm width measured at the hoods becomes 46 cm at the bar ends (center to center).

Compatibility

Colnago has prioritized maximum compatibility with third-party handlebars, stems, and forks for riders who wish to customize their C68 Gravel. The only requirement is that components must support fully integrated cable routing (hidden cables). The frame accommodates both electronic and mechanical single-chainring (1x) groupsets, offering broad customization options.

The generous tire clearance supports widths up to 45 mm, opening new possibilities for off-road adventures.

The C68 Gravel is available in five sizes (450, 480, 510, 540, 570), ensuring an ideal fit for every rider. With its combination of tradition, refined aesthetics, and advanced engineering, the C68 Gravel is poised to inspire gravel and adventure cyclists worldwide.
