LEGEND Bikes, New Italian Custom Framebuilding
Framebuilder Marco Bertoletti,and partners, have recently created a new company: Legend Bikes located in Presezzo (Bergamo). Marco Bertoletti has been building frames for over 20 years, 15 years of experience in titanium frame construction.
All Legend frames will be custom made to measure in their new 5,000 square foot facility in Presezzo. Four models are currently offered, two in carbon (HC 6.1 and Marathon) and two in steel (Sella Ronda and Fedala). The time to delivery from final measurement is currently five weeks.
Legend has also come to an agreement with Assos, Carnac and Lightweight to act as an official showroom in northern Italy. They are handling custom fitted Carnac shoes, can arrange a test ride with Lightweight wheels or components and have a complete range of Assos clothing. The boutique-ish showroom, the Legend Store, is located on the outskirts of Piacenza in the town of Diara di Rivergaro.
