ABOUT:
As a cyclist for over 50 years and bike restorer for 20+, I derive satisfaction from returning "cosmetically challenged" (as in beyond patina) artisan-made Italian, steel frame sets to as-new appearance for cyclists to build and enjoy riding again. Frame refinish is far more expertly applied and durable than original. Some frames have been re-plated. Chrome plating is good to excellent. Current inventory includes Italian frames in a range of sizes. More coming!
