I had a Zanconato with Pegorichie tubing a few years back; most of my PRs were set on that bike. Granted I was also a bit fitter back then, but nonetheless that bike rocked.

So what you are saying is it's not Columbus Spirit

A Colombian custom bike company?? That´s freakking cool.
I am in south america and usually commute through Bogota´s airport. My experience w/ colombians is wonderfull. They are deep into cycling w/ legendary climbers. Girls and boys ride the mountains all the time on beautifull gear. |

Thank you, cool detail.
Thread should be renamed pegorichie reality.

I've got a frame made with the PegoRichie Uber OS tubes and special lugs, with the matching fork with flat fork crown. Very nice. Above is a link that tells about the set. Last edited by LouDeeter; 02-11-2019 at 01:31 PM. |

Yes my pegorichie Sachs is a very noticeable difference from my Peg Marcelo, and your description is spot on with my perception.

New builder with some experience with an old builder. My riding buddy has one. It's a beautiful bike (both yours and his).
And, yes, Pegorichie tubes are awesome. I have two steel bikes with them and they're both keepers. |

Did they work for Tinno Cycles down there? I had been following them and their website went dead, they made some cool bikes and their prices were more than fair.

Maybe this is heresy, but I don't think you can feel any difference between high end steel tube sets. I say high end, because you need that tensile strength with lightweight tubing. So, Reynolds 853 or 953, Dedacciai Zero, Columbus Spirit etc will all behave the same. The builder can make some difference in how they select gauges, angles, butt lengths, etc.

Venerable bikes like Masi GC and Cinelli Supercorsa used both 531 and Columbus on different frames. I just don't think one brand of tube set is superior to another. |
