Giordana Framesets ~
Exceptional values in
classic Italian lugged steel frames!
These are the exact same frames our professional team, the Scott-BiKyle
Flyers rode for three consecutive years. Light, lively, and dependable, our
riders couldn't praise them enough. The geometries are classic Italian stage
racing - more comfortable and stable than most. Yet, fast enough to win over 60 criterium races for our
pro squad alone!
Though made in Italy, Giordana frames utilize Excell steel alloys from
France. Used by many pro riders, Excell steels were originally developed for the
aerospace industry. Excell uses special alloys that are heat treated and worked
mechanically for the highest tensile strengths available. Two types of
alloys are used by Giordana: nickel/chromium in the Superleggero and the main
frame of the Eco plus a special chrome molybdenum blend for the Strada as well
as the rear triangle of the Eco.
Colors: There are a few single color Giordanas. All the
rest are painted in the "backgammon" scheme as pictured below. The available
colors are listed for each frame: raspberry red with silver, cobalt blue with
white, dark green metallic with silver, Canary yellow with white, fire engine
red with yellow, turquoise green with white, or fire engine red with gold.

Ken B. from Az, 10/03: "I have an
older Eco coated candy-apple red into which I had S & S
couplers installed and it's outfitted with a
vintage Dura Ace 7-speed group, and those cool Mavic
cranks. Of all the bikes that I have and have ridden that's my favorite -- by
far. I like the idea that they have not changed the design in many years. Why
should they? It's perfect, I think. Look for me in the Tour de Tucson.
