HANDMADE IN MILANO

Speciale Corsa XCR

THE PINNACLE OF XCR STAINLESS STEEL. REIMAGINED.

THE JUNCTIONS

Shapes a tube can’t make on its own.

Carbon can be moulded into any shape. Steel tubes can’t. With cables now hidden entirely inside the frame, the joints need clean internal surfaces and wide passages, and no drawn tube gets you there. So we print them: stainless steel junctions, shaped exactly where the frame needs them.

Head tube junction

3d Printed junctions

  • Top tube, seat tube and seat stays meet in one printed piece. The seat clamp expander is built into it, so nothing sits on the outside.

  • Head tube and top tube joined in a single form, with the cable passages already inside it.
