Benna's Bike

Velo News just posted an article about Daniele Bennati's bike. It reminded me of when we delivered his first custom frame. We all met up at the Verona South exit and after about 10 phone calls finally found each other among all the construction and traffic. Benna was happy to finally get the custom frame and we were happy to finally have it done and delivered!

Delivering bikes to these guys and then having them win aboard them is awesome. For the green bike, it was built up Sunday night and then went on to win Monday's sprint stage into Milazzo! I have the feeling that it won't be the only Giro stage won aboard the green machine... this guy is FAST!

  1. And yet another win for Benna! That green custom Super Six is fast!

  2. Three so far... After the second win, he was told that he won by 15 cm. His reply? "I only needed one."

    Today, he barely had that! It's a good thing we made the frame 3 cm longer!
