I think Colnago will live on and will continue making small amount of steel bikes but smaller builders like DeRosa, Masi, and all the famous builders? Cinelli has fallen off the wayside? Don't hear about them with new stems and bars. Not even their track frames. Co. like Look dominate the track.

I’m not Pete, but the steel bike industry is alive and well. Heck, I can name at least a half dozen builders that I know personally, all of whom build amazing frames.
