Description:
The Cornelo Profilo is a striking Italian steel road bike frame from the 1980s, crafted from Columbus Aelle tubing.
Its most distinctive feature is the beautifully shaped “stella” or star-profile tubes, a design element that gave this model its name. These unique star-section tubes add both stiffness and visual character, making it a true collector’s piece among vintage steel frames.
Built with a BSA-threaded bottom bracket shell (68 mm), a 27.0 mm seatpost fit, and 100 / 126 mm installation width, the frame is compatible with classic Campagnolo or Shimano drivetrains of the period.
An excellent foundation for a refined Italian restoration project or display-worthy vintage build.
