Description
Giovanni (Vanni) Losa was an expert frame builder from Vittuone (close to Milan) who is responsible for some of the finest classic steel frames around. He mostly built frames as a contractor for other famous companies. Among his works are several frames for Cinelli (including the Super Corsa from the 1990s until 2008), and Magni. Many of his bikes are easily recognisable from the refined triangular engravings with a "V" shape (from his nickname Vanni) on the lugs - a particularity of most Losa frames.
When Losa made a bike that was named after him it always was an extra special piece of artisan frame building and ours is no exception. Our Losa Winner Air is a custom-made masterpiece. The tubing of the main triangle has been drawn into star shapes, which enhances the rigidity of the frameset. The rear braking cable actually runs in the top grove of the star-shaped tubing.
The rear triangle and front lugs have been chromed, which adds extra dazzle to this artisan piece. This frameset was certainly made for speed which is apparent from the aero fork! When making a frameset for speed and performance, top components need to be equipped and that is exactly what has been fitted here. It is equipped with a Campagnolo Super Record groupset which was simply the best of gruppo of its time.
