C59 Disc

Welcome to a new era of high per­for­mance road bike brak­ing, the Colnago C59 Disc.

Colnago have taken a bold step towards the future of road bike evo­lu­tion with the intro­duc­tion of the C59 Disc. Featuring fully hydraulic front and rear disc brakes it is set to bring a whole new level of per­for­mance and safety to the Colnago road bike line. The frame and fork are fully com­pat­i­ble with stan­dard PM calipers too.

With twin 140mm diam­e­ter discs the frame and fork have also been redesigned in the key areas where the brakes are mounted. The fork is com­pletely new, whilst at the rear of the main frame the chain­stays and the seat­stays are also new, to cope with the increased load­ing that the disc brakes gen­er­ate at their mount­ing points. The C59 Disc is com­pat­i­ble with both elec­tronic and mechan­i­cal groupsets.

Along with the main chas­sis changes, Colnago have also designed their own match­ing wheel sys­tem, the Artemis Disc. These wheels fea­ture disc-specific hubs and full car­bon com­pos­ite wheel rims.

Now, no mat­ter the weather, you can have the most pow­er­ful and con­trol­lable brak­ing sys­tem avail­able on a road bicy­cle. The sys­tem is easy to ser­vice, should it ever need ser­vic­ing - as the sys­tem is essen­tially closed and there are no cables to replace or wear out. The reg­u­lar main­te­nance will only con­sist of check­ing the brake pads for wear, and replac­ing them when needed - which is a sim­ple five minute job.
