Delgado Posted January 15, 2017 Author Posted January 15, 2017 Not sure if any of you have seen this, but very, very interesting!!!!! http://www.handbuiltbicyclenews.com/c26-frame-builders/227-battaglin-to-focus-on-steel-and-phase-out-carbon-fiber-framesBattaglin to focus on steel and phase out carbon fiber frames Anticipating a market shift toward steel frames, the storied Italian brand is bringing all its frame production back in house, offering custom options, and is renewing its relationship with Columbus. Alessandro Battaglin explains the changes............................. Quote of the century.....Bravo Battaglin!! Stai ascoltando Ernesto?? "After some time we realized that with a good engineer and a good designer working very far from us, the frame is done. Ninety percent of carbon frames are made in China, and we had been feeling there was nothing of us in the frames. We didn’t see our ideas, we didn’t feel any of our passion. When people talk about a carbon frame quite soon the conversation always comes down to the price. But when we make a steel frame it is different. We can talk about the welding, the finishing, the geometry, the conversation is very different. As a company we decided we really want to be making our own frames." DJR, IH8MUD, HeyYou and 1 other 4

BuffsVintageBikes Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 Not many friends who visit my Man Cave appreciate these beauties but I figured the guys trolling this thread might. I got them off an old Lejeune my wife had when we first met and took them off when I sold it as I'd never seen a set like them before. They honestly look like they've been engraved by hand although I doubt it IH8MUD, Mongoose!, DJR and 3 others 6

I wish I had been as wise and kept all the Campag brake levers and friction shifters I chucked off and replaced with aero 600 levers, and SIS, as most of us did back then. Aaah well, the advantage of hind sight. Prince Albert Cycles and quintonb 2
