Ernesto Colnago was born in Cambiago in the province of Milan on 9 February 1932. In 1953, after various experiences, including a period of work in the prestigious GLORIA company where he learned the trade, he opened his own workshop in his hometown. In 1954 he took part in the Giro d’Italia as a mechanic for Magni’s Nivea. He continued as a mechanic for Leo Chlorodont and in 1957 he built the bike with which Gastone Nencini won the Giro d’Italia. Increasingly appreciated as a manufacturer, he linked his name and brand to Eddy Merckx’s Molteni and Baronchelli’s SCIC. For Eddy Merckx he will build the bike with which the Belgian will set the hour record.
