Description
Sante Pogliaghi is undoubtedly one of the best Italian frame builders of the post Second World War times. Many champions as Eddy Merckx and countless others rode with his frames, the frame builder from Milan was well known for his skills in building customised steel frames. Despite the fact that he mainly built track frames and tandems, Pogliaghi´s frames were also highly esteemed among road racers.
He can easily be considered the grandfather of modern road bike design who inspired many others like Colnago or Pinarello.
Here we feature one of his stunning road bicycles. This beautifully made frame has been professionaly refurbished and received a dark gold paintjob with a hint of green. As for the equipment, you will find fine components like Campagnolo Nuovo Record and Super Record, wheels laced with Martano rims or both cockpit and saddle by 3ttt.
According to the frame number - No. 12083 - and the letters engraved on the head tube lug - PSM (Pogliaghi Sante Milano), this frame was approximately built 1978 or 1979.
The perfect bicycle to participate in L´Eroica as well as to enrich any serious collection!
