Bikes: yes

sante pogliaghi was a master builder. you can find more information on him and his bikes on classicrendezvous.com (link ), or by searching these forums.

i have a pogliaghi track bike from 1976, and love it to pieces.

on that link that i posted, you can match the serial number of your bike to an approximate year.

and before that, they were even better. production jumped significantly in the late 70s, and Sante Pogliaghi himself had less to do with the building, if i recall correctly.

some bikes from the 60s and 70s have "PSM" stamped somewhere near the serial number - on the seatcluster lug, headtube, or perhaps somewhere else. i've heard rumor that this indicates that the bike was built by Sante. I haven't found confirmation of this.
