We just want to show you the restoration journey of this vintage bike, a true testament to craftsmanship and history. This isn’t just any old bike; it’s a piece of cycling heritage, a vintage model that holds a special place in the hearts of enthusiasts.

The name “Original” might have caused a bit of confusion in the past, leading some to believe it meant “original origin.” However, it’s simply the name of the model, dating back to 1991. This particular bike is a gem, boasting an aerodynamic fork that was a signature feature of our company.

What makes this restoration project even more exciting is its connection to the golden era of cycling in the early ’90s. This bike was once ridden by the Selle Italia Mosoca team, a testament to its performance and durability.

Despite its prestigious history, the bike had fallen into disrepair over the years. But thanks to its owner’s decision to breathe new life into it, we have the opportunity to restore it to its former glory.

Our mission is clear: to restore this bike to its original state, preserving its color, components, and chrome plating. However, the chrome plating poses a challenge due to severe rust damage. We’ll carefully assess the extent of the corrosion and decide whether re-chroming is feasible.

Re-chroming isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about honoring the bike’s heritage. While it may be a costly and meticulous process, the end result will be worth it, bringing back the classic beauty of this vintage masterpiece.

Every component tells a story, from the original Campagnolo group to the San Marco saddle and FIR rims. Each part will be meticulously restored or replaced to ensure the bike retains its authenticity and charm.

So, as we embark on this restoration journey, join us as we uncover the beauty and history hidden within every pedal stroke and chrome-plated detail. Let’s begin by disassembling the bike and uncovering the secrets that lie beneath its weathered exterior.
