MONTELLO
Inside the walled city of Treviso, Italy, lies the workshop of Giovanni Pinarello. It has occupied the same location for over 40 years. While increase demand for Pinarello bicycles has forced Pinarello to move the manufacturing phase of his business to larger quarters outside the city, he still oversees all production to insure that his exacting standards are upheld. This attention to detail has made Pinarello the framebuilder of champions.

Through the years, Pinarello bicycles have been ridden to victories by riders like Battaglin, Van Impe, Grewal, Delgado, Bertoglio, and Fondriest. These victories include the great classics such as the Tour de France, Giro D’Italia, the Olympic Games, and the World Championships. Pinarello’s passion for bicycle racing has resulted in many design innovations.

Details like the special bridgeless bottom bracket shell, and plug-in cast fork and stay ends exemplify Pinarello’s contributions to the advancement of bicycle design. After nearly a half century of framebuilding, Pinarello remains a leader in an industry of followers.
