My Pelizzoli Leggenda :) I ordered this frame as my own gift when my PhD was about to finish. After a very long process it finally came ... this is the bike I will never sell as it is part of my life now ... First built it to bomb in the street and for fun ! Then I changed parts to use it for racing and training (compact bars etc), still keeping the traditional look of the steel fork. Finally built it as a racing machine with the wound up and thomson parts. The fork made the bike more confortable which is very appreciated on longer ride.

sweet build. how do you find the look s-track mtb pedals? have you have unclipped accidentally?
Posted almost 8 years ago
Well, It's pretty good since when it is clipped, there is virtually no way to unclip.

Nice to hear that! I'll go get a pair they look so much cleaner compared to Time atacs.

I am gonna change it for Speedplay as I find the choice in road shoes better, and because they have a very low vertical stack... But will keep the Look for Alleycat when you need SPD type shoes like chrome :)

Hey, nice! I have one too. What frame size do you have? What's your height? I wonder because I have a frame size 58 and I am 183. It's going quite well. But it needs some time to adapt the muscles...
And I have a massive toe overlap...

Hi :) I m 1m79, and my inseam suggest me to take a 55.5 ctc seat tube. I took the 54 model, which is fine. Massive toe overlap also, but you get used to it and do not notice after.

has turned out exceptional. a polished seat post clamp would complete the flow

Very nice build. I'm interested in buying one for myself, and I have a question about it. Did you get this frame with the "tight clearance" option or without it? Do you know the difference between regular clearance and "tight" clearance?
Posted over 10 years ago
Thx! Yeah this is tight clearance. The non tight has measurement that I do not know, less aggressive, more front clearance (no overlap). Cheers ;)

are you satisfied with the frame? i had several flaws within the paintjob and the clearance...and waited over 7 months
Posted over 10 years ago
Yep i m satisified. Clearance is very tight but i m used to it so no probs, and i asked for it. I ve seen that some guys had troubles with the painting, but it s due to the painting they used on some series. A guy had a brand new paint job after asking ;)

hmkay, because my experiences differ a lot: no tight clearance despite ordering it explicitly, damaged paint job (no special color) and last but not least very very slow response via email and long fabrication period
