Vito came all the way to Gesualdo to collect his frame in person. Some time later he sent me these words, which I am happy to share.

I have been passionate about cycling since I was a child.

My first bike was a steel Bianchi; then, following the trends, I rode all kinds of aluminium and finally carbon.

In recent years I wanted a made-to-measure steel bike. That is how I met Vincenzo, a cycling enthusiast just like me.

Vincenzo built me a custom frame, exactly as I wanted it, and in the end we also became friends.

My first impression riding this frame was one of comfort. I thank Vincenzo and warmly recommend him for the work of art he made.

With friendship,
Vito
