Titanio Classica
In the Titanio Classica, we are trying to create a bike that stands out from fashions and trends to offer lasting joy to those who ride it.
"In the Titanio Classica, we wanted to create a bike that stood aside from fads and trends to provide enduring joy for its rider"
One of the first producers of titanium bicycles, each Passoni frame celebrates the skill of our builders. Presented to maximum effect thanks to 30 hours of finishing and polishing, this attention to detail is evident from every angle. Undiminished by time and usage, its sinuous welds and burnished exterior will captivate for the lifetime of the bicycle. At the same time, details such as the lustre of its tubes and the styling of each bicycle’s logos can be subtly tuned to suit its owner’s tastes. Further customisable through our made-to-measure service, the fit and geometry of the Titanio Classica arrive adapted to your exact needs. This perfect alignment between rider and machine ensures you experience our true intention in creating the Titanio Classica, a bike made to transcend trends and provide a ride for the ages.
Complementing the frame’s heart, slender seatstays and larger ovalized chainstays provide a ride simultaneously lithe and taught. Suited to those who love to push themselves and their bicycle further than seems possible, the Titanio Classica’s seatstays are joined together by Passoni’s beautiful shell-style dropouts. Elsewhere, a machined 1 1/8th headtube and threaded bottom bracket provide both simplicity and longevity.
Cultivated from the highest grades of titanium, the Titanio Classica’s tubes are custom drawn and strengthened to provide a ride perfectly echoing the bike’s refined aesthetic. Harmonious in form and function, the frame’s cylindrical downtube is matched by similar profile seat and top tubes that maintain the idealised form of the bicycle as understood by generations of cyclists.
