    Deep red is a good colour for a Colnago. Like this one...

    Those forks look very straight. I thought steel forks usually kick forward slightly.

    Saronni red is a deeper darker red than the master above. Saronni Red is lovely.

    It's not that much of a choice - too high and you can't reach the pedals, too low and your knees will explode. :)

    During the mid 1980s, Colnago introduced the “Precisa” brand bicyclefork. It was the first front fork with straight blades. The normal road racing ~4 degree fork rake was provided by the shape of the crown. Colnago claimed that this straight-blade feature provided lengthwise elasticity similar to curved blade forks to dampen road roughness, but with much improved crosswise stiffness for sprinting. The design was also considered to be one of the lightest full steel forks, underweighing even some cheaper contemporary aluminium or carbon forks. Many modern forks, especially carbon forks, now use straight blades. The bicycle tubing manufacturer Columbus tubing marketed the fork under its own brand name “Elite” but in fact it was the same fork as Colnago “Precisa”
