Hi Jill, What are the ST and TT sizes for this? Is it a 54cm C-T or C-C measurement? TIA

Actually, Indurain and the other Banesto riders did ride a combination TVT92’s and something similar to this ML34 for the 90 and 91 seasons. It was around 92-93 that Big Mig and others started using those tig welded Excell and Dynalite tubed Pegorettis.

Masciaghi built Fausto Coppi Lugano 53’. Size 56x56 C-C. Giovanni Pelizzoli of Ciocc design. Professional level frame set from 94/95 used by Team Polti & MG GB. Fillet brazed Columbus Genius with dropped seat stays and pearlescent white paint. Light, supple, stiff when putting out some power...

2021 Trek Emonda. Bought it a couple months back but it's more of an all year round bike. My steel bikes and Wilier are too nice for salted roads but this does the job perfectly. Wheels in picture are from Wilier and now have a small U.K. brand 35mm wheelset fitted. 30mm tubeless tyres and...

Lovely machine - remind me a lot of my first road bike. Same colour and match white saddle/tape, toe clips and downtube shifters :cool: ....although it was a lower spec junior thing from the 80's, traditional cable exit from hoods etc. Wish I could find the old pictures.

I doubt it is SL tubing, I don't belive it is suitable for Fillet brazing/Tig welding - this was a feature introduced to early 90's onwards tube sets like Genius, Nemo and EL. The fork is also quite light indicating mid 90's. Also depending on size, 1800-1900g isn't unheard of on medium and...

Thank you. Yeah I am pretty fussy with most things on my bikes, saddles especially. The Flite Titanium is a 90's icon and recommended by many, but I always loved the look of the San Marco Ti200 ever since I saw it on Greg LeMonds 1992 Calfee. They're both nice but I'd put the Flite as slightly...

It's the best riding bike I have - stiff enough seated or sprinting in the drops but also compliant, it just rolls along with an enjoyable feel to it. If you stand up and kick up a small crest it flexes slightly but with a beautiful elastic spring that kind of works with you as you pedal...

Absolute beauty 👌 I didn't know Vetta did framesets. Does the top tube statement/writing say the person is a 3rd generation frame builder? Love the smooth fillet brazed style joins and uni-crown fork, looks great. If it was me I would fit a Vetta SL Titanium saddle just to further the...

Agreed and thank you 👍

The bars are tilted upwards slightly and it has 50/38 fitted so a slightly different set-up in 2nd pic. I love both looks equally. The Aero wheels look amazing on a sunny day when the light hits them. Polti used Cosmics in 94 on certain stages but I preferred the look of the Tecno's and they...

Will be selling this soon if you're interested. Recent annual strip & rebuild with NOS 7410 BB. Pro issue DA7410 groupset and Tecno 416 wheels. Fillet brazed Genius, would be very close if not identical to what Bugno etc used in Team Polti/MG-GB in 1994/1995. Frame would benefit from a re-spray...

Very nice, MG-GB team colours. Is that a mega down tube Genius frame? Columbus sticker looks identical to mine.

*first image is Bugno 1994

Hi Gridno, The bike is in Team Polti 1994 colours as far as I can see. Gianni Bugno used his type of frame with the dropped seat stays in 1994, along with other conventional steel/titanium frames and the carbon Airone (re-brandedC4 Carbonio). In 1994 MG still used Bianchi bikes. In 1995 MG...
