Description
Giovanni 'Vanni' Losa was an expert frame builder from Vittuone, close to Milan, Italy. He is responsible for some of the finest classic steel frames around, building frames as a contractor for other famous companies.
Among his exquisite works are several models for Magni and Cinelli, including the Cinelli Super Corsa from the 1990s until 2008. Many of his bikes are easily recognisable by the refined triangular engravings on the lugs, with a "V" shape to symbolise his 'Vanni' nickname.
When Losa made bikes that were to bear his own name, they would always be an extra special piece of artisan frame building. This example is no exception.
The downtube is aerodynamically profiled, with a narrow cross section, whilst the seat tube is crimped inwards for a shorter wheelbase, creating a better responding bike. The Columbus SL tubing has been finished with excellent paintwork; the detailed yellow accent work is exceptional.
This Losa is equipped with a Campagnolo Super Record groupset and 3ttt components. Only the best Italian parts could compliment such a beautiful bike.
A bike for connoisseurs and Eroica enthusiasts.
