54cm Torelli Countach OS complete bike
54cm seat tube x 54.5cm top tube
This is simply a superb, hand-built Italian frame mounted with a stunning set of components.
This Torelli Countach was TIG-welded using Torelli's proprietary Columbus Nemo 747 tubing. The paint is Dupont Imron, applied in the U.S. by famed paint shop The Cyclesmiths. All Torelli frames undergo a thorough pre-assembly preparation. All the threads are cleaned using Campagnolo-made tools and the alignment is checked, both before and after painting, on a Marchetti+Lange alignment table.
The derailleurs and 32-hole hubs are Centaur grey. Cranks are Campagnolo Record 172.5 triple, 30/40/50, mounted to a Campagnolo Chorus bottom bracket.
Complete bike as shown without pedals: $4,000
