History
In 1954 Paolo and Italo Guerciotti opened a small frame building shop outside Milano. During the early years both brothers raced competitively while learning the retailing trade. Italo, the road racer, represented Italy in the 1959 and 1960 World Championships, while Paolo a cyclocross specialist competed in the Cyclocross World Championships in 1979. Paolo remains a devoted racing patriarch, incorporating competitive cyclocross technology throughout the Guerciotti line. The Carbonio and Record Aluminum models dramatically illustrate top competitive technology resulting in optimum, lightweight racing performance.

Performance
Quality cyclists and triathletes ride Guerciotti with confidence for the reliability, precision and performance of the machine. Guerciotti bicycles have dominated the U.S. road racing circuit for years, winning 8 of 9 U.S. Senior Men’s National gold medals since 1985, by the Ten Speed Drive National Road Team. Ric Wells, a world class triathlete, captured the 1987 Nice International Triathlon Championships riding a Guerciotti. In addition, Gervais Rioux won the Canadian National Championships in 1987 on a GLX. World Cyclocross has been dominated by winning performances on Guerciotti throughout the ’80’s: Four time World Champion and Belgium native Roland Liboton heads a prestigious list of two time World Champions including Italy’s Vito Di Tano, West German’s Mike Kluge and Czechoslovkia’s Radomir Simunek.

Reputation
Guerciotti bicycles have been exclusively distributed by Ten Speed Drive Imports since 1972. Guerciotti’s racing heritage and Italian quality are built in every Guerciotti bicycle, meeting the needs of every category of cyclist. In 1980 Guerciotti enjoined master frame builder Alberto Mondonico as a partner. Mondonico serves as Production Manager allowing Paolo to pursue the responsibilities of sales and marketing. Guerciotti frames are trademarked with their custom cut investment cast lugs and bottom bracket. The Guerciotti signature on the seat stay and the “G” within a five pointed star stylize the distinctive look of every Guerciotti bicycle.

Quality
Handcrafted, Guerciotti framesets are sent to the U.S. unpainted where they receive our exclusive multi-step TSDI Frame Prep™ process which results in precision frame alignment within 0.1mm upon the machined surface. The extraordinary paint finish on every Guerciotti is a product of TSDI Frame Paint™, a superior hand detailed finish using DuPont Imron® paint.
