Testimonials
Here's what our fellow cyclists said about riding the Officina Battaglin custom steel bikes
Back to the testimonials"Overall weight is comparable to my Ti bike, but this is fast."
I really love this bike. It’s very special. I’ve always had steel and Ti frames. This bike is the most carbon I’ve ever had. That said, overall weight is comparable to my Ti bike, but the performance is radically different. It’s fast. I’m pulling out PRs without too much thought. And it is oh so comfortable. It’s such a joy to ride. And then there’s the looks. I mean, it is such a beautiful bike. I love how the sun catches the cromovelato finish. And I love the colour. Definitely the right choice for me.

Hi Alessandro! Here are some real gravel pictures for you from South Africa and Namibia. The roads in Namibia are VERY rough and now sandy too. The bike is performing well and I’ve done 1500km here.
Dear Alex, Ciao. Grazie mille. Please, on my behalf, thank your dad for designing such a tremendous frame for me. And thank the team for building such a unique color scheme for me. It is so beautiful. Bellissimo! I was originally skeptical about switching to a steel bike that is 1kg heavier than my Colnago…
“Alex- My Officina Battaglin Power+ is my fourth steel frame, and first in over 30 years! The first thing that I noticed about the bike when I rode it on the farm roads around the workshop in Marostica was how smooth and quiet it was. I was expecting a jarring and rattling ride when hitting…
