Hi,
as far as I know Simonelli is to be the frame used by the racing team of "RADSPORT HOLCZER" . Holczer is the guy who managed Gerolsteiner. He had a good running cycling shop so he was able to provide decent steel to his team like Simonelli SLX Aero tubing frames. I am not sure but "heard" that simonelli is creation of a German import company.
