Colnago Dazzles with Limited Edition Tadej Pogačar V4Rs Road Bike

Colnago is paying tribute to its most celebrated rider of the day, Tadej Pogačar, with a limited edition version of its V4Rs road bike, which the Slovenian champion will ride during the World Championships in Zurich on September 29.

Taking the standard issue V4Rs that Pogačar and his UAE Team Emirates teammates ride, the limited edition bike is treated to a special livery that Colnago says was inspired by the Pop-Art movement that took place during the mid-50s in the USA and UK., with colors being a tribute to Pogačar’s palmarès: 

• Yellow, to celebrate three Tour de France GC victories (2020, 2021, 2024)
• Pink, as homage to the 2024 Giro d’Italia and the pink jersey he wore for 20 out of 21 stages;
• Green, to recall Il Lombardia, the Monument Classic that he conquered in 2021, 2022 and 2023, and for Liège-Bastogne-Liège, which he won twice, in 2021 and 2024;
• Heavenly blue, for Paris-Nice, one of the most prestigious one-week races on the calendar, won in 2023;
• Blue, the color of Tirreno-Adriatico (victories in 2021-2022) and of the KOM jersey at Giro d’Italia (2024);
• White, the color of the best young rider of the Tour de France, a special classification that Pogačar won for four years, from 2020 to 2023;
• Red dots, to celebrate the iconic KOM jersey of the Tour de France, a special classification that he won in 2020 and 2021;
• Bronze, for two precious bronze medals: the one at the Olympics in 2021 and the one obtained at the World Championships in Glasgow in 2023;
• Purple… because as Pogačar stated, “you always need something purple in your life.”

Additionally, the bike is further embellished with a TP (Tadej Pogačar) logo on the frame, most notably on the horizontal tube and at the intersection with the seat tube, as well as other areas like the chainstays.

Elsewhere, the bike is highlighted by a special edition Carbon-Ti crankset, brake discs, thru-axles and hardware, complete with the TP logo as well.
