“Just a quick note to thank you (and your team) for all your help with the bike.
A great frame is not a ‘product’ it’s a ‘process’ and that’s something the big name brands seem to have forgotten.

Photoshoot day for Red Lantern – My new Battaglin Portofino, which I bought for my 44th birthday. I built this completely Italian: frame, groupset, components, wheelset, tyres, even the inner tubes (Pirellis)! The only thing not from Italy?
