Ferriveloci

[Netdewt]

I just learned of this builder. Has anyone seen one in person? They only do track frames, and they look quite nice to me.

I am pretty intrigued by track-only frame builders. It's a curiosity, and makes me want one. :banana:

It's a new brand without experience,their only aim seems to be the look of the frame.they also build some strange road frame with the rear brake under the bb shell.

They are young guys who instead always be talking about something they do not know they have decided to try to build it, getting his hands dirty, studying, trying again and again. It is much easier to talk about something ( that you do not even know how you build) shooting sentence, from what kind of knowledge? ..... Italic envy.
try to do something, show us your talent, behind a keyboard is all very easy.
Does anyone know a brand born already with the whole experience?

If the master blacksmith can appreciate their efforts, then we all can!

...Well said, Mr. round.

I like to support the young builders, personally.

From their website-

Gianmaria Citron-"In 2012 he had the good fortune of participating in a workshop with Dario Pegoretti, where, for the first time, he undertook the construction of a steel frame. On the strength of valuable knowledge gained during the workshop, and fascinated by the stories and inspiration of Mario Camilotto, together with Paolo, he decided to start the Ferriveloci adventure."

Very cool stuff. They seem to "get it". More power to them.

As an aside, can anybody tell me what saddle is used on the first bike. Nice classic look. Thanks

[buldogge]

Unicanitor (later Cinelli Unicanitor). It is a classic saddle…although it might be a re-issue/current production model.

It's also a world-class ass hatchet.

Nice looking web site.

Can they build you a nice/good riding frame? I have no idea, but they are trying to build what they love/like. For that I will not judge them as good or bad. In fact I would error on the good side because they have put themselves out there.

Am I going to buy one. Nope. But I will tip my hat to those who are starting a new bike building company.

Someone has to support these new builders or it will eventually be the death of custom frames. If these ride as good as they look, I don't see why you shouldn't support them.

What have they done to get such a negative attitude? They know they are new and have offered up that information on their own website.
