Taken from this thread.

The answer from Colnago is "Frames using traditional sizes are considered the best by Ernesto Colnago. In fact, sloping sizes were born from , Mountain Bikes where all the sizes were covered with 4 standard sizes. Personally sloping sizes are exclusively for commercial reasons."

I think that's an old quote from Ernie........ check how all recent Colnago adverts are now showing the slopers......also all the pro sponsored teams use slopers.

I think Colnago has bowed to the current fashion of sloping top tubes which yes did come fromt the mtb world and crossed over when Mike burrows designed Road frames for Giant.
