I’m sure on some heavy artillery fanboy site, there’s some whacky dude posting about the glory of steel bikes. You guys should meet for tea.

OTH Devotchka is great.

Tiziano Zullo was born in 1952 at Stallavena, a small village close to Verona in the North of Italy. His family came from “Zulli”, a little mountain village. Tiziano started racing at the age of fourteen. He road raced in the summer, and spent the winters racing cyclo-cross. He raced for about ten years in both regional and national races. In the early seventies, Tiziano came into contact with the world of frame building through the Italian artisans that were renowned for their skills. Soon, he too was building frames.


The very start was spent on a steep learning curve. Though many had offered a helping hand, very few delivered on their promise. Slowly but surely he grew his small business. Eventually he would supply frames to some better known Italian companies. As well as supplying these other companies, he also sold frames within his local area under his trademark ‘Zullo’. From about this time, ‘Zullo’ frames were supplied to amateur teams in Verona. From 1978 he was able to export his brand to countries like Germany, France, the USA and Australia.


In 1985 he crossed paths with top Dutch professional team TVM. This would lead to Zullo being the frame supplier of the team from 1986 until 1992. The team was well known for such top professionals as Phil Anderson, Dimitri Konychev, Jesper Skibby and Scott Sunderland.
The TVM team utilised the best of frame technology available at the time. Using everything from Columbus SL, SLX, MAX and MS on road, time trial, track and even cross bikes. Zullo frames would be ridden on the roads of Milan San Remo, the Northern Classics and the Tours De France, Giro d’Italia, La Vuelta and World Championships.


In 1994, Zullo would move into the production of tig-welded aluminium frames. Eventually this would lead to the production of combined aluminium/carbon frames. In 2003, Zullo was able to offer made-to-measure full carbon frames. Nowadays, Tiziano Zullo is still involved in the production of some, mainly steel frames. Alongside this, he is still responsible for all the frame graphics and some of the frame painting

Today, November 11th, marks the end of World War I, the “War To End All Wars,” as it turned out to be inaccurately described.


The world of cycling was not untouched by geopolitics. In July 1942, French police, acting under the German occupying forces’ orders, used the Velodrome d’Hiver as a holding ground for French Jews prior to their transport to Auschwitz. The Tour de France was taken over after World War II by publisher Émilien Amaury, who served in the Resistance and whose Amaury Sport Organization continues to run the race to this day.

2022 LIEGE-BASTOGNE-LIEGE Stockeu passage...
The Côte de Stockeu in Stavelot is without a doubt one of the most difficult climbs in Belgium. It will come as no surprise that this was Eddy Merckx's favorite climb during Liège Bastogne Liège. This climb creates a real battlefield for cyclists. This is due to the killer gradients at the bottom of the climb. For long stretches the climb is above the unbelievably tough 20%. Measured over 200 meters in length, this hill climbs an average of 19%.
In Liège-Bastanaken-Liège only part of the ascent is taken. The pros come down the Wanneranval and then turn sharply right at Stockeu. After about 1100 meters the riders turn left at the statue of Eddy Merckx. However, the climb continues for more than a kilometer if you ride straight ahead.
