Nel corso dei secoli il gusto dell’uomo per le bellezze classiche non ha mai accennato a diminuire. Purtroppo nel corso della storia non sono mai mancate misere imitazioni che si volevano far passare per autentiche. Questo non è il caso della SOMEC.
In una cittadina italiana più medioevale che moderna la Società SOMEC costruisce telai uno alla volta con cura artigianale.
Servendosi esclusivamente della lega in argento più fine, gli artigiani della SOMEC producono qualità, non quantità.
La Società produce un migliaio di telai all’anno che prima di lasciare l’azienda devono attraversare una serie interminabile di controlli. Essa utilizza soltanto tubazioni COLUMBUS di prima qualità.
Le biciclette SOMEC sono montate con precisione e rifinite con perfezione. I telai sono completamente nichelati per ritardare la ruggine e cromati dove necessario. Prima di applicare una mano finale di vernice trasparente, ogni telaio viene prima trattato con 2 mani di vernice ognuno dei quali si compone. di 2 strati. La rifinitura è in un vero capolavoro da vedere. Pochi resistono alla tentazione di toccare. Ma ciò che distingue i prodotti SOMEC non è ciò che si può vedere o toccare: sono anni di esperienza e di passione intramontabile per la bicicletta.
Altri produttori di telai causano cicatrici e bruciature sui loro prodotti surriscaldando le tubazioni in un procedimento affrettato di saldatura. È un vero peccato. Queste cicatrici rovinano il piacere di trovarsi su di una bicicletta.
Alla SOMEC non si usano metodi affrettati e quindi le tubazioni non vengono surriscaldate. I telai sono sempre veloci e sensibili. Fin dalla prima pedalata si sente subito come lo sforzo si trasformi in velocità. Con l’impugnatura sicura del manubrio è un piacere affrontare le curve, superare velocemente le salite e lanciarsi nelle discese.
Con la stabilità e l’agilità della SOMEC ci si illumina. Le bici SOMEC non accontentano soltanto l’occhio.

Through the ages, man’s appreciation of classic beauty has not diminished. Unfortunately, history has been filled with pale imitations staking their claims to authenticity. Not SOMEC.
In an Italian town that is more medieval than modern the Società di Meccanica (SOMEC) builds frames one at a time using only the finest silver solder SOMEC craftsmen produce quality not quantity. One thousand frames are produced annually each passing a battery of inspections before leaving the workshop.
Only the finest quality COLUMBUS tubes and investment cas lugs, crowns, and shells are used.
Somecs are mitered precisely, aligned perfectly. Frames are entirely nickel plated to retard rust and chromed where necesary.
The coats each of primer and paint are applied before a final coats of clear lacquer is added to each frame. The finish is satiny, a visual masterpiece. Few can withstand the temptation to touch. But it’s what you cannot see (or touch) that sets somecs apart. Years of experience and a continued love for cycling.
Sadly, other frame builders scar their work by overheating tubes in their haste to braze lug joints. Resulting burns deaden a frame’s ride. At SOMEC, craftsmanship is not rushed. Tubes are never overheated.
The frames are always quick and responsive. From your first pedal stoke, you’ll notice the pure trasmission of your power into speed. The tight handling will renew your enthusiasm for the word cornering. Fly up a hill and descend as fast as you can.
The stability and agility of SOMEC will enlighten you. Cicli SOMEC more than meets the eye.

Im Laufe der Jahrhunderten ist der Kunstsinn des Menschen nie geschwunden. Leider hat man oft in der Vergangenheit aermliche Nachahmungen fuer authentisch ausgegeben. Das gilt aber nicht fuer SOMEC.
In einer kleinen Italienischen Stadt, die mehr mittelaelterlich als modern aussieht, bildet die Gesellschaft SOMEC Rahmen einen nach dem andern mit grossen Sorgfalt. Die Handwerker von SOMEC gebrauchen ausschliesslich die feinste Silberliegerung und rechnen auf die Qualitaet und nicht Quantitaet.
Diese Gesellschaft herstellt ungefaehr ein tausend Rahmen jedes Jahr, die durch eine endlose Reihe Pruefungen gehen bevor aus der Fabrik zu kommen. SOMEC gebraucht nur COLUMBUS Rohre von bester Sorte. Fahrraeder sind mit Genauigkeit und Vollkommenjeit zusammengesetzt. Die Rahmen sind ganz vernickelt, damit der Rost verhindert wird, und verchromt wo es notwendig ist. Vor dem letzdem Ueberzug von durchsichtlichem lack wird jeder Rahmen zweimal bestrichen und jedes Mal mit zwei Ueberzuege bedeckt. Die Feinbearbeitung ist ein wirkliches Meisterwerk. Wenige Leute wiederstehen die Versuchung um sie mit den Haenden zu greifen. Doch es ist nicht was man kann sehen oder greifen das die Produkte von SOMEC auschichnet: das ist aber die Erfahrung und die endlose Verliebe fuer das Fahrrad.
Andere Hersteller verursachen Narben und Brandflecken auf ihre Produkte bei einem allzu raschem Schweissen das die Roehre ueberhitzt. Es ist Schade. Diese Narben zerstoeren die Freude mit einem Fahrrad zu fahren.
SOMEC gebraucht keine allzu rasche Methode und die Roehre werden nicht ueberhitzt. Die Rahmen sind schnell und empfindlich. Schon beim ersten Pedaltritt fuehlt man wie die Anstrengung zu Geschwindigkeit wird. Mit einem sicheren Lenkergriff ist es vergnueglich abzubiegen, schnell ueber Steigungen zu fahren und sich in die gefaelle zu stuerzen.
Die Stabilitaet und die Schnelligkeit der Fahrraeder von SOMEC sind spannend.
Die Fahrraeder von SOMEC sind nicht nur um zu sehen.

CICLO-MASTER

Questo attrezzo è utilissimo per avere la misura perfetta del telaio che servirà al cliente; infatti, grazie alla sua registrabilità in lunghezza ed in altezza, permette al cliente stesso di rendersi conto come diventerà la sua bicicletta.
Le misure vanno da cm 48,5 × 49,5 la minima, da cm 63,5 × 61 la massima, il tubo verticale ha un’inclinazione registrabile da 71° a 76°, l’attacco del manubrio è registrabile da cm 6 a cm 12.
Questo apparecchio è inoltre dotato di un rullo, il più quotato nel mondo (CICLOTRAINING), il quale permette di evidenziare la posizione che il corridore assume sotto sforzo.
Un’altra funzione di questo attrezzo è la possibilità di essere usato in sostituzione al rullo e, grazie alla sua registrabilità, anche da persone di altezza diversa, evitando in questo modo il logorio dei tubolari, eventuali incrinature nel telaio o fuoricentro delle ruote.
