AVALANCHE ROAD CENTO

DATE DE REALISATION : Marsch 2023

CYCLISTE : Man , 1m85

PRESENTATION : This bike was made at the request of a customer who has been cycling in competition since a very young age. In this world of racing, he was used to, but also tired of mass-produced carbon bikes. It is wishing to acquire a more durable bike, without losing performance that he entrusted us with the realization of his bike. A lover of sports and collectible cars, the CENTO tube game, created by Columbus in a limited series, on the occasion of the centenary of the Italian house, immediately appealed to him. The rare and collectible aspect conferred on this range of steel tubes, with their unique details, combined with the remarkable technical properties of this steel, have made the CENTO set the ideal choice.

The result of the postural study, carried out in the workshop, is a racy position, with a fairly strong drop, in line with this client's desire to perform. All the components chosen for this machine are also chosen for their rigidity, their lightness and their performance. Concerned about the most local supply possible, the vast majority have been sourced as close as possible to us. The fork is made to order in Italy, the handlebar and stem assembly are also made in Italy, the wheels are spoked in France, and the crankset is made in Spain. When possible, it is a way of equipping our bikes that is close to our hearts.

Finally, the painting carried out met the specifications of this great automobile fan and in particular of the Porsche brand, whose red here is one of the emblematic reds of this house. A sober and elegant detail, allowing the transition from red to black, subtly underlines the reference to the automotive sports world.
