Legnano Pista

Here is a nice early 1960's Legnano pista.

This frame set was in pretty poor shape when we 

found it. It's last use had been as a 

single speed TT mount, hense the brake 

hole in the front forks.

 I first had the frame rechromed at Kustom Chrome in 

Gisbourne, an excellent job a usual..thanks guys.

Trust me, chrome didn't look like this a couple of months ago!

I made my own stencil's for the Legnano down tube script, and

am very glad I did, the decals just don't cut it.

 So after plenty of time preping and painting etc, I was 

rewarded finally with a very pretty Legnano Pista.

Ercole Baldini on the Vigorelli velodrome.

Certainly a race pedigree second to none.

It was a real pleasure to bring this frame back 

to life, it is now a real thing of beauty.
