Description


Benotto was founded by Giacinto Benotto in Torino, Italy, in 1931. Like so many Italian bike manufacturers of the era, Benotto himself was a passionate racer and had first hand experience of the competitive world of racing. He knew of the need for high-quality designs.

Here we present you an absolute gem, a top level Benotto made by one of the most famous frame builders of the 20th century - Giuseppe Pelà. That is to be recognized not just by the trademark fork crown but also by the bottom bracket shell with 4 cutouts. The frame is made of Columbus SL tubeset and still sports the original and typical Benotto beige paintjob used by team Filotex. Luckily, this rare piece has survived these roughly 45 years very well and thanks to the careful storage it is in exceptionally good condition.

As for the parts, it is fully equipped with Campagnolo Nuovo Record groupset and some fine parts which complete this very prestigious built. Cinelli has been chosen for both cockpit and saddle while the Nisi rims were the first choice of top class Italian bikes back then. The Benotto pantographes elevate the bike even higher and you can find them on the chainring, stem and even the seatpost.

A stunning piece of cycling history in original top shape.


The bike we present here seems to be from late 1978 as it has a the famous Diamante chainstays with a rhombic diameter which have actually been a trademark of Ugo De Rosa. Fine details like the beautiful fork, Campagnolo dropouts, the Benotto bar tape and the Campagnolo Super Record groupset leave no doubt concerning the thorough quality of this racing machine. Some parts especially need to be mentioned like the precisely drilled Campagnolo parts, Cinelli Record cockpit and Unicanitor saddle and the Mavic OR10 rims with gold anodizing.

A beautiful ride and a gorgeous sight, this Benotto 3000 can be instantly used since it has been thoroughly checked by our mechanics.

Condition

Used.   The bicycle is in good condition. The frame has no cracks and is not bent. The paintwork is original with some minor signs of usage like small scratches and abrasions.

Just bought a second vintage classic bike from Steel Vintage. A great bike at an excellent price and they couldn't have been more helpful. Their fantastic service was every bit as good as before.
Placed the on-line order late on Saturday evening and the bike was delivered to me here in the UK the following Thursday morning.

Geeky Eroica Cool. I bought the "old-school" Italian made bike shoes. They were delivered in good condition and in a quick timely fashion. They're geeky cool, just like I hoped and they're put together very well (stitched nicely, no glues where it shouldn't be) light and fit properly!

Steel Vintage Bikes are such an excellent company to deal with. They are passionate about vintage steel bikes. They have in my opinion very fair prices and very obliging to deal with. Packaging is great and no hassle even for delivery way down here in New Zealand.

The overall service provided by Steel Vintage Bikes is always first rate. Delivery and packaging is always timely and well done. I cannot fault Steel Vintage and have been a customer for a number of years.. Plan to get to Berlin hopefully in the near future, stop in for a some Kaffee und Kirchen and a bike geek mooch around the shop.
