gios torino -> interesting one?
hello!
Is this bike interesting? (I am not expert at all)
the frame seems to be a "faggin" (?)
unfortunatly I don't have any other info...
I looked at gios torino bikes on the web, and I did'nt saw this model ... is it a more recent one (than those nice blue ones from the 70s)? just crap?
thanks in advance !

No GIOS is crap. It looks like a lovely bike and a great ride. it says super record on it but no super record I have ever seen had internal brake cable routing. The pictures aren't detailed at all so it's hard to get any detail. What do you mean the frame seems to be a Faggin? Does it have that stamped on it? If it does than it sounds like you have a Faggin that someone painted as a GIOS. Faggin's are lovely bikes from North eastern italy I believe. Small family business, handbuilt, none of the fame of the big names but a great bike that never got to north america. Still in business today.
