 Torelli Nitro Express, 2008 ~
Handmade in Torelli's small Italian
workshop of triple butted Columbus "Spirit" heat treated Niobium cromoly throughout. TIG welded with
fully forged dropouts and cast bottom bracket. 1 1/8" headtube. Inclludes
full carbon Torelli Aspect SL fork. Same time-tested geometry as Torelli
Countach. 3.4 pounds. Painted in the U.S. in your choice of Torelli's 12
luscious Imron colors. Requires 28.6mm front derailleur, 27.2 seatpost, and
Italian threaded bottom bracket.
NIOBIUM is a very special steel with
manganese, chrome, nickel, molybdenum and niobium. In careful testing, Niobium
is more effective than Vanadium and other alloys as a strengthening agent.
Columbus' patented chemical composition improves resistance against
precipitation and reduces the alloy grain size for a more resilient ride. After
progressive drawing and forming NIOBIUM undergoes a special heat treatment that
gives the steel its final characteristics. Niobium provides superior mechanical
characteristics and higher resistance to environmental effects than conventional
carbon steels.
 Torelli
Selvino, 2008 ~
950 grams!
 There was only
one problem with the 2007 Selvino, we couldn't get enough
of them! Sold out by early summer,
the 2007 model was probably the best value in a professional carbon frame on the
market. Some careful fine tuning of the frame makes the 2008 Selvino even
better. Weight has been reduced to a
feather-light 950 grams in size small! The lugless design allows Chairman Bill
to put the strength where it is needed
most while keeping the ride light and lively. The new rear wheel tuck (see
picture on right) decreases turbulence in a critical area. A rich clear coat
provides a lustrous finish while putting the fine carbon workmanship on full
display. Includes a 350 gram full carbon fork! Color is black with yellow decals
but if you prefer, we can provide any custom paint you would like. Includes
frame, fork, and headset.

red Express ~
This frame is one of our best sellers. Made of
TIG welded Columbus Nemo 747 cromoly
with Columbus Carve carbon fiber seat stays, the
Torelli Express is one of the lightest and finest steel
frames available. The
Torelli Aspect fork is also
carbon fiber. Total
frame weight is just 3.1 pounds! Most significantly, the comfort of
this frame is astonishing. Yet, it has lots of jump and
acceleration.
Torelli Express: "I've been looking for a yardstick bike, some steel
creature by which I can compare all others. This is it. As a result of this test, steel
remains my favorite material for a bike frame and the Torelli Nitro Express is now the
finest steel bicycle I've ridden." Bicyclist Magazine 10/98

Corsa Strada ~
"I
have to say it again: I love the blissfully quiet ride of the bike's heart of
steel." Bicycling Magazine
 The Torelli Corsa Strada is proof that a
well designed frame made with care and slightly less exotic materials will ride
much better than a frame with more exclusive tubing and less manufacturing care. One magazine editor
noted that the Corsa Strada rode almost as well as the Cinelli Super Corsa he was
reviewing at the same time. You can buy a few Corsa Stradas for the price of 1
Cinelli Super Corsa; that puts you FAR ahead!
The Corsa Strada is built in a small
shop north of Padua, Italy. The tubing is Columbus Zona double-butted cromoly. The top
tube is drawn down to .5 mm, nearly as thin as tubing can go. The
seat lug and Italian threaded bottom bracket shell are investment cast. Front
derailleur is attached by 28.6mm clamp so you use cranksets in all double,
compact, and triple configurations. Our Corsa Stradas
are shipped
unpainted to the U.S. where they receive a lustrous paint finish of Dupont Imron
plus clear coats.
Frame weight is a mere 3.8 lbs.
Includes a black Torelli Aspect carbon fork. If you prefer, you can
substitute a handmade Columbus cromoly steel fork painted to match or plated in
full chrome.
Also
available in 2 extra small frame sizes, 44 and 46cm with 650c wheels !!
