The missing tool
For too long we’ve been trying to find this tool, not to add it to any collection, but to start using it as soon as we got it. Nothing can be better than this vintage Campagnolo BB cup remover model 793 to take off the fixed cup from basically all the campy vintage bb sets. If you tried to do that a few times, you definitely know what kind of pain it can be. Well, this is the right tool you need. It’s in a rough shape for sure and a broken spindle was replaced in “some way”, but since it’s working extremely well I really don’t mind knowing that this tool was used for many years before we had it in our hands. An expensive tool made for one purpose only, made under the Campy quality standards of the old days, so glad we finally got it.

Early Ciöcc decal set
It’s extremely rare to find a Ciöcc this old, this frame was made and painted in 1972, the first year of Pelizzoli’s production under this brand. If you’re lucky enough to own one, this is how it should look like, if not, bad news… probably repainted. Giovanni Pelizzoli, started making frames in 1967, but the brand Ciöcc was born only in 1972 According to Mr. Pelizzoli these decals are the right ones for frames made in 1972-1973. They feature the name of the brand on the down tube, the Ciöcc logo on the head tube and seat tube, stripes with “Curno – Bergamo” (which is the place where the frames were and are currently made as well) on the seat tube and 2 small stickers on the chain stays with the frame model, “Special Poker”.

Colnago OVAL-CX Time trial frameset
This is one of the rarest items we’ve ever been able to collect so far. The special oval shape tubing and the lugset were custom made only for this model. The Oval CX was produced during a very short period of time and in a very low number of pieces, and since this is the time trial version, it’s even rarer, a highly collectible item. It comes with its original Colnago panto seatpost. Please note that because of the special size of the seatpost, it would almost be impossible to find it if this piece would be missing. Colnago panto gear shifters and Colnago headset are also included in the frameset. Time trial geometries features a 650 front wheel. For the ones who are wondering… Yes, it’s for sale.

A bunch of rarities
I’m feeling extremely lucky to have come across these beautiful steel pieces. Sorry, not just pieces, but indispensable parts to build a dream lugged frame. What we have here is a mix of different eras. The rarest is definitely the Masi fork crown engraved with the letters F and M, meaning Faliero Masi of course. This is the rarest and oldest original Masi fork crown I’ve been able to find during these years. About the rest; you see a much newer Milano 3V casted fork crown with a logo of Milan’s dome on it. Mr. Alberto used that logo for a while after the Masi family sold their brand. The 3rd Masi crown is a classic design, used on several bikes they produced, one of the first models to be casted. Once again, you see the name of the builder on it, F.Masi. The last fork crown is an antique Coppi-Fiorelli model, pretty hard to find too, the holes on the side were closed with two Coppi rounded badges. The last piece is one of the last Masi Volumetrica BB shell you’ll ever see, this one is a part of a complete lugset. Unfortunately, when the casting company went bankrupt, the molds of these lugs got lost. The entire stock has been used along the years, and today there are probably only a very few sets left.

Nuovo mercatino del ciclo…

You will be able to see our new stuff at the next edition, that is gonna take place in a few weeks – we don’t have a date yet, but soon! New bikes, frames and parts are gonna be displayed at the market, then, slowly, we’ll upload the good stuff on the website as well. If you’re looking for something and you can’t see it in the for sale section, drop us a line, we might have what you’re looking for.

Masi slotted chain stays design
Unfortunately i’m not really allowed to tell you much about this frame, but as you can see it’s a Masi Prestige that is about to get its paint-job done. But this is not just a traditional Prestige. It’s the special edition, designed by Faliero, Alberto Masi’s father, with slotted chain stays like the ones seen on the Eddy’s Masi TT bike. A design from the 70′s and still so awesome and hard to copy. Alberto has his secrets, and he wants to keep them. Right now, the guys from Pelizzoli here in Bergamo are taking really good care of this jewel that soon will be with its owner. Sorry guys, not everyone can place an order on a frame like this, even if you’re feeling ready to pay the price that this frame is worth. The waiting list is long and the few pieces available per year are usually reserved for Masi’s regular costumers. I would also like to take the opportunity to tell you that because of personal problems I might not be able to be in Gaiole this Sunday. My lovely dog got hit by a car and needs to be cared for 24/7… So if I can’t make it (I don’t know yet), have fun for me as well! I’ll see you next year for sure.
