oldgit - mate who owns the Holdsworth and Masi up there^^^ also has a PEgoretti. His is the lugged Luigino. Beautiful thing (even though he despoils it with a triple - lives in Devon where it's uber lumpy).
They're mental money aren't they?
Anyway you can probably see I'm after a nice steel winter/general riding bike from my posts.
Your post prompted me to check out some older stuff, and for a few hundred quid you can buy some nice steel that'll take modern 10 speed.
Seen some gorgeous Italian jobs that'll take the 105 groupset, brooks Swift, 1" Chris King, handbuilts etc. And even with a respray I'll get all that for under a grand.
Hmm the pegoretti's are ok i guess, there are much better italian steel frames though and others as well. They certainly aren't worth the wait or money!
there are much better italian steel frames though
be interested in what you think is "much better" i like the Zullo frames but haven't seen much else apart from the likes of Scapin, Viner and Tommasini. they are not in the same class imho.
i had a lovely de rosa neo primato until i sold it last week , it was stunning to ride with a full campag record carbon gruppo i only sold it cos it was marginally too big for me . expensive but not silly money
phat steel tubes on this lovely zullo
