CASATI TI DA DI PIU’

Dire CASATI è come dire garanzia.
Un telaio CASATI è un telaio curato nei minimi particolari, dalle congiunzioni microfuse, alle saldature a bassa temperatura con leghe speciali, per non intaccare le caratteristiche di resistenza dei tubi Columbus al Cromo-Molibdeno, dalla particolare curvatura della forcella, elastica al punto giusto per una guida sicura, alla curatissima inclinazione del piantone centrale, fulcro per una esatta posizione in sella.
Inoltre, tutto è sottoposto alla ferrea accuratezza artigiana in ogni particolare.
Ecco perchè un telaio CASATI è una garanzia.

YOU GET MORE FROM CASATI

In the bike world, CASATI is the synonym of quality.
That’s because, a CASATI frame has been engineered and assembled with a great deal of care for the smallest parts and details.
Skilled craftsmen select the best available components in the market and, when necessary, they have some of them made for their own design.
Skill is used at its highest level in assembling the frame: the use of special high resistance and low-temperature alloys to braze Chrome-Molibdenum tubing, the ribbling of the chainstay, the bending of the fork and the inclination of the rear post are the operations that personalize and make a CASATI frame unique.
This skill has been achieved in over 50 years of frames manufacturing.
That’s why you get a warranty if you buy CASATI.

Casati: tre generazioni di passione per la bicicletta, nata dalla bottega artigianale che fin dal 1920 seguiva i primissimi sportivi monzesi.
Una passione che continua oggi, nella realizzazione di biciclette «Purosangue», con caratteristiche calibrate sulle misure, il peso, le esigenze dell’acquirente.
Una cura così minuziosa dei particolari da fare di ogni telaio, di ogni bicicletta un’opera unica, irripetibile. Dove l’amore per lo sport, l’esperienza nella costruzione, e l’attenzione alle più recenti innovazioni tecniche, permettono di ottenere un prodotto che si può definire perfetto dal punto di vista meccanico, e artistico dal punto di vista delle rifiniture.

Casati: three generations of love for bicycles, born in the handicraftsman’s shop which in 1920 supported the first sportmen at Monza.
A love going on nowadays with the achievement of the «Purosangue» bicycle, whose size and weight fulfill purchaser’s requirements. A particularly careful execution makes of every frame and of every bicycle a masterpiece.
Where love for this sport, experience in manufacturing and adoption of the most recent technical innovations allow to obtain a product that can be considered perfect from a mechanical point of view and artistic as for its finish.

Casati: Drei Generationen Fahrradleidenschaft, geboren in einer handwerklichen Werkstatt, die schon’ seit 1920 die ersten Sportler von Monza begeisterten. Beste qualitative Handwerkskunst und elegantes, zukunftsweisendes Styling – echt italienisch…
Eine Leidenschaft, die heute noch in der Herstellung der Fahrräder “Purosangue” (übersetzt: “Vollblut”) weiterlebt. Fahrräder, welche gerne individuell nach Körpermaben, Gewicht und Anforderung des Käufers gefertigt werden.
Die peinlich genane Sorgfalt, mit der man die Rahmen herstellt, macht die Casati-Räder zu etwas Aubergewöhnlichem und Unnachahmlichem.
Wo die Liebe für den erlebnisreichen Radsport diese edle Handwerkskunst unter Beachtung des letzten technischen Fortschrittes, bester Ausrüstung, elegantem Finish garantiert, da kann man als Profi und als Amateur seiner Passion gerecht werden.
