Passoni Titanio - Titanium Race Heritage
Passoni has been making made-to-measure race bikes for a long time. Back in the 80's and 90's professional cyclists would get their bikes made by Mr Passoni and then sprayed in their team colours. Passoni was the first company to try and alchemise the famously recalcitrant grey metal into shapes to preference performance as the primary criteria - beauty was always just functional happenstance.
The Titanio is hand-crafted from custom butted titanium grade 9 (3Al / 2,5V) for the main tubes and titanium grade 5 (6Al / 4V) for head tube, bottom bracket shell and dropouts. and CNC works.
"beauty was always just functional happenstance"
It takes forty hours of hand-filing achieve this aesthetic
Nobody else does this with titanium. Beauty included.
For a select few of our clients there will only ever be one bike company. They will never ride anything else.
The devil resides right here. In the detail.
You don't have to fit Campag of course....
Will turn heads for decades. Beware of cheap imitations.
