Description
Founded by Silvino Grandis in 1965, Grandis is an Italian manufacturer from Verona which still produces high-end racing bicycles today. Everything started in 1930, when Silvino built his first frame, though he started selling bicycles under his name only after 35 years in the business. Ever since then, his bicycles have been admired by cyclists and collectors around the globe.
The Grandis Special was one of the top models back in the 1980s. Made of light and sturdy Columbus SL tubes, this bicycle perfectly illustrates Grandis' skills in building lightweight bikes.
This bike arrived at Steel Vintage Bikes in original good condition and is equipped with a nice and great working Shimano 600 EX groupset from the mid 1980s. The shifting is adjusted for non-indexed friction shifting, which makes this bike a perfect match for Eroica races. The frame itself combines classic geometry with classy details like engraved logos on headtube and seat stay caps. Refined craftsmanship of the kind you can expect by Grandis. Checked and serviced in our workshop, this Grandis is ready to be ridden.
Simply elegant. A bicycle for those who admire attention to details and a perfectly sportive outcome.
Fully serviced and ready to go!
