Pogliaghi fork
 

Hi. Got this nice flat crown panto fork with SL steerer and pogliaghi tips. Any idea what frame its part off? All SP Columbus forks Ive found had Columbus tips.Thanks

0 response... anybody?

Could it possibly another Campagnolo fork end with Poliaghi stamped in place? Seen this before, but no idea if the two concerns acted on your particular fork.

The forum's learned elders will need to see this one. [MENTION=333224]juvela[/MENTION], [MENTION=57478]repechage[/MENTION], [MENTION=20650]T-Mar[/MENTION], etc, come forth please.

It seemed there was almost an era of when builders were stamping their dropouts. Maybe mid 80s. The crown appears it could be older though. Neat flat crown.

the contract firm (might have been either Technociclo or Everest or...?) who was forging frame bits for BOTH Campagnolo and Gipiemme as well as Columbus would stamp any brand a buyer wished as long as they paid for it.
The quality is the same (for the same forgings) regardless of the branding.

ok I get it in general, but as I wrote earlier none of the models Ive found has it. Pogliaghi wasnt like mass producer so if he would even outsourced it, it would have to be for a whole line of forks for maybe one frame model. what do you think?

Judging by the logo on the forkcrown this fork is from the era when Basso had acquired the Pogliaghi name and made the bikes (including forks), or smaller chance it was in the brief period that Rossin was making them before selling the name to Basso. In either case i'm pretty sure there's nothing unusual about one of those manufacturers contracting with the forger to stamp the Pogliaghi brand on the dropouts they bought but the practice was something that came into fashion at a particular time, maybe around the late '80s. Before then it would be unusual to see anything but the Big Brands stamped on Italian forgings: Campagnolo or Gipiemme.

While the old man was alive, the firm was "smaller" but did grow in the later 70's, probably well beyond what he could have always had a hand in. After he soldout, things evolved... The type style shows later 80's to me and volume was well in the number where branding of parts was common.

Common would agree with columbus, campagnolo. All I could find was those. If it was so common why they are not in the market?

Here is one exactly the same... :D

Your sarcasm is well noted....it's literally the same fork.
