Description: Don't forget to check our website for the latest products! Luciano Paletti Split Seat Tube Road Bicycle. 55cm Luciano Paletti Split Seat Tube Road Bicycle. 55cm Luciano Paletti Strada Specialissima road bicycle, in excellent original condition. This bicycle is based around a fully chromed split seat tube frame, a unique and innovative design by Luciano Paletti. The complicated dual tube arrangement enables the rear wheel to protrude forward into the front triangle, thus drastically reducing the length of the chain stays. As a result the bike displays whip like handling and extremely efficient power transfer from the rider to the road. This particular example is adorned with an eye catching teal green and white paint scheme. Badged Reparto Corse, meaning it is a Pro Edition. Super rare example of the breed, constructed using the finest lugs and an aero fork crown. Garnished with a period correct Campagnolo Super Record group set.
