  If you love riding, you'll have a hard time leaving this shop. Bike Porn is best to describe this place! Amazing Italian bike frames, full highend components and fully knowledgeable, friendly owners to fine tune your ride.

  Using a training and race bicycle as two different bikes, one cheaper and one highend is just wrong as training should = racing conditions right down to the frame while most of my serious crashes that required frame straightening happened in races not training. While training on a cheaper frame leads to silly and BAD habits that will destroy a fancy light frame a cheaper heavier frame would absorb. Get one frame with comfortable angles that can do it all, save you money, and have a better chance at success.

  I raced on Haral (steel frames designed in/for the Dolomite Mountains) which were popular AND highly discounted for my race team of great climbers that were used by all of us during the 1988 Olympic Trials, provincial/national championships, and international trips. Later, I was given a Masi ultralight frames after turning professional. I raced on both for thousands of kilometers and over many mountains in my career with MAVIC components from my sponser. The difference between Italian frames and local designs is simple to understand; there are simply far more Italian riders on Italian frames than Canadians on Canadian frames.

  I love buying local but a good local frame is usually strictly designed for either relaxed for road racing or tight for criteriums and very expensive especially when riders like myself went thru one frame every year! A good average Italian frame is designed for all kinds of races, is about average price, and meant to be ridden every day. Why? Racers/good riders in Italy will pick an average but well designed frame to ride hard 365 days a year and get another reasonably priced good frame next year. Yes, you can find specialist road, mountain, and criterium frame designs in Italy too but an average good frame can do it all. Here in Vancouver/Canada most racers/riders expect their frames to last more than a year OR they have a cheaper relaxrd training ride and an expensive tight race ride. These are mistakes; I easily participated in 190 races every year equal to 300 hours or ≈12,000km of road racing while riding at least 800 hours or ≈25,000km/year.

  I'm looking for a new road bicycle frame and just happened into Veloholic Cycles. Inside I discovered they carry Italian custom road frames built to size! Looking at the show frames I quickly noticed all the beautiful frames that were very well designed with high attention to details. I had a few questions that were quickly answered; such as specifying custom braze-ons and road bicycle mechanical services.
