We missed this one when it was first announced, but you may have as well, so we may as well cover it.  Colnago’s new frame for 2009, the CX-1, is a carbon fiber monocoque frame that is designed for the road.

The monocoque frame is built with a monocoque front triangle and an assembled rear triangle, being first sourced in Taiwan with final assembly taking place in Italy.

The new CX-1 is also going to be the lightest from Colnago at 995g.  It will be available in eight sizes when released with top tube lengths from 51-59).

The price is expected at approximately $4,000, and released in October or November of this year.
