Pegoretti Elio Road Bike

Shown with Ciavete artwork

Elio, named after the first child of Pegoretti artisan Leonardo, is a high-performance road bike in the finest Italian tradition. Its arrival heralds a reinterpretation of the Pegoretti design language, and, for the first time on a Pegoretti, internal cabling routing and the ability to run an integrated cockpit. 

The frame evolved over several months, from first thought to final design, each step marked and made by hand here at our Bottega in Verona, Italy. Throughout, progress came in fits, starts and sprints, driven forward by degrees as we developed its Columbus XCR stainless steel tubing profiles, tapering lines, shape, style and visceral sense of speed. 

Pietro, the Master of the Pegoretti workshop, says that when you use your hands to work steel, you seek and find balance, a sensation you’ll notice from the first turn of the cranks. Elio really goes. With a slightly lower centre of gravity than other Pegoretti models, Elio rides with a close and confident connection to the road. Turning in tempts you to take the next corner deeper. And you can, faster than you think. Which might coax you to a sprint and sheer pace that surfaces surprise and the desire to do the whole ride again. 

Throughout the frame, there are some sizing subtleties that may not be immediately apparent. For example, Elio’s top tube tapers from 35mm, where it meets the head tube, to 31.7mm at the seat tube. The down tube is the biggest yet on a Pegoretti, up from our usual 39mm to 42mm. And the head tube measures 56mm to accommodate internal routing, a first on a Pegoretti. Up front, the carbon fibre fork runs straight, aero-forward and stiff when it matters. It’s clean and rides with definitive precision.

Elio’s tyre clearance runs up to 32mm for an unapologetically pure road experience. Disc brakes, UDH compliance and electronic-exclusive groupset compatibility further signal its intentions.

Options for Elio are myriad. Standard and custom geometries, Ciavete, solid colours or Pegoretti geometric designs are all on the table. There are multiple cockpit solutions, from a Chris King headset and Enve cockpit pairing, to an all-Deda or Columbus setup, or, for the tinkerers, any stem with a 25mm internal diameter and their choice of internal routing-compliant bar.
