In 1946, Enrico Chirico started building bicycle frames in Bussero, Italy. Chirico was a contract builder for Cinelli, producing the Equipe and other models for the North American market. I purchased this frame, fully restored, from Cicli Corsa during the winter. When I received the frame, it was even nicer than I could have imagined. I built this up mostly using NOS parts from my collection; the drivetrain is a mix of Athena and Record 11, headset is a NOS Gipiemme Crono Sprint... you get the idea.
