Bike porn

Took him 300hrs to make the frame and including the integrated seat post weighs just 1215g. I get access to a garage from thurs and think I'm might have a go at some (much simpler) carbon at some point. Forks first I think. Will post when/if I actually do.

What a fucking waste of time

What a fucking waste of time

I think that frame is interesting more from a structural point of view, but can see a lot of flaws in his design even if he was gonna stick with the carbon tube scaffold style. But yes, it is kind of a waste of time as his carbon fiber lugged and tubed frame weighed in at 1260g!

Guess I shouldn't have posted it as porn really... shuffles off

It would take me 3.00 seconds to put the finishing touches to that with a lump hammer.

Would be amusing to watch! He also does bamboo bikes, if anyone wants go with an axe?! :D
Nah, just found his site as I was looking up DIY carbon frames. Although it would take some research to get the theoretical knowledge for the carbon matrix layout and time to prepare a mold properly, the actual process doesn't look impossible at all. Just time consuming and finicky.

New Pellizoli Leggenda with Columbus FOR3

looks like there's some bloody good stuff going on in the background

The Richey cross bike is mighty fine from tip to toe.

What a fucking waste of time

lolz

True though, even at minimum wage, 300h work gets you a complete PX Nano with half-Red.

+1 I particularly like the amber walls adding a certain air of retro goodness. I likes it.

In other news, I saw this atop a motor at a cyclocross race I was at yesterday. It appealed to me as it was far from perfect a bit battle scarred, rusty and looking every bit as old as it should. Don't fancy riding it off road with one gear though :)

The Pellizoli looks shite tbf... another copycat of Mash, another waste of tubing.

ANd that bike alone,= not Porn in my Book.

My 26er can take those Maxxis, i could actually try to set it up like that.

I raise you this:

Probably rides finer though ... ;)

yeah I don't get every living frame maker needs to do a pursuit frame these days :/
but pellizoli says that they can do a non pursuit version if requested.

I really liked the superb sprint (wich isn't very original too, a cannondale track copy), but I don't know much about the frame maker...

Yeah, I guess that Mash was really the first...

I like'm and that Pelizolli build makes sense too (except for bar angle). Nice stash of pron in the background!

Was that picture taken at StalenRos?

Yeah

Thought so, I was there, it was nice :)
