Custom Cervélo Giro Italia RS Frameset

In 1909, the owner of the Italian newspaper La Gazetta dello Sport took inspiration from the Tour de France (then only 6 years old) and created his own national stage race, the Giro d’Italia. Won by such cycling greats as Fausto Coppi, Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, and Marco Pantani, the maglia rosa of the Giro d’Italia has become one of cycling’s most coveted achievements. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Giro d’Italia, and the members of Cervélo TestTeam will be commemorating this landmark race by riding custom-painted Giro d’Italia Cervélo bikes. This unique, commemorative paint scheme will also be available to customers on a very
limited edition RS frameset.

Frameset pricing: est 2500.00 USD.
Available sizes: XS, 51, 54, 56, 58.
Delivery to retail: Early April, 2009.

Available as a frameset only, the limited edition paint scheme on this model will look fabulous built up with a wide variety of components, but is wellsuited to particular parts and accessories in the same colour scheme. Some recommended specs include:

• Speedplay Light Action pedals in pink
