Pelizzoli Leggenda vs. Cannondale Track

I wonder if it's just a mere coincidence that the new blue aluminum Pelizzoli Leggenda frame, which comes with traditional flat crown steel track fork, has extra fat downtube and has nice smoothed welds, looks bit like Cannondale Track?

Holy downtube clearance, Batman!

More pics of the Pelizzoli GP Pista I posted about recently, now built up.

I'm impressed. Def not 'a street fixie, comfortable enough for commuting and longer rides with enough room for bigger tires...' like what everyone is producing nowadays. Italian classic track bike, anyone?

Pelizzoli GP Pista 2011

Giovanni Pelizzoli. Who? Mr. Ciöcc, legendary Italian framebuilder is apparently starting to build classic style steel frames again, both road and track models, under his own name. Here are first shots of the new Pelizzoli GP Pista. Keep an eye here and here if you're feelin' deez steeds. I know I will.

Found In A Barn

Unknown track frame found in some barn somewhere in Finland. Apparently there were also two old Bianchis in the same place. Damn!



I stole the pic from the new owner, Tommi.

The Blueprint

This here might - or might not be - the blueprint of the Cinelli Gazzetta track frame. For those of you who are into this type of stuff...
