It isn't a C&V bike.
But I supppose it is a "keeper of the flame" type of bike.
I think it is the sort of thing that the C&V folks might appreciate, though .....
I like it.

Unique Vintage Steel
*drooooool* Very pretty. There's a guy in my club with a blue / silver Pegoretti, beautiful bike. I see that the frame wears the orange color just as well.

Is the "Hand" on the headbadge supposed to interpret to "hand made?"
It is a real beauty!

I know where about a half dozen really nice bikes can be had for a reasonable cost. If you ride a 55-56, you may want to PM waytoomanybikes.

Sweet.
Sometimes I think of getting a super-nice modern steel frame because it will be with me the rest of my life. Pegorotti would be my very first choice.
