Colnago Master X-Light

[jychen]

The Colnago Master X-Light is still a beautiful frame I have seen.
It is constructed by Columbus DT15V tubing. (Chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steel alloy) But I can¡¦t find detail information about this. There are some top steel alloy tubing which we have known. Reynolds 853,Dedaccai EOM16.5 and Columbus FOCO
Can anyone tell me how the performance of dt15v compares to above tubing?

It seems to be nothing more than a very slightly lighter version of the nivacrom tubeset used in the previous masterlights. EOM 16.5 and Foco could be lighter,but otherwise in a blind test you could not tell the difference.
