I assume it has pedals and 2 wheels...beyond that it's a mystery

mrdelprete

I am telling you, it is a tommaso, hey, if it sounds "eyetalian" it must be right!

i reckon it is a fine hand crafted italian trek.

I'm guessing Bottechia...And I mean the real Bottechia, not the Bikes Direct Bottechia....

Only on BF would someone come asking for information on their bike but refuse to state what bike it is.

I suppose people are supposed to read his mind to find this information.

sbxx1985 

You are so lucky. That was close.

It's not about a bike brand. It's about a manufacturing process and the discrepancy between what you read and what you get. It's that simple. It could be a Colnago, a Pinarello, an Olmo, a Tommasino, or an Italian bike of your imagination. The name of the bike and the brand is irrelevant (in my opinion)

coasting 

there are people here who work in the industry and know the manufacturing companies that supply these devious lying italian brands. if you name the brand, they can tell you who made it and what they make it with.

Velo Gator

Maybe it will end up on Wikileaks.

Nerull

You want to know what grade of carbon your frame was made with. You expect to find this out without telling anyone what frame it is. That is very, very, far from irrelevant.

I've never ever seen anyone buy an expensive carbon bike and not only not brag about it, but refuse to even name it. This sounds really, really suspicious.

brianbeech

How bout: you're asking everyone for help and acting like an information nazi when questioned about, as you describe it, irrelevant information. Then just share it if it's of no consequence.

FL_MarkD

It is unlikely that anyone knows what exactly it is made of except 'carbon fiber'. They pump out so many frames that the factories probably aren't really sure. And nobody is going to backtrack to the factory to check the lot number as a cross reference to the frame serial number even if they could answer your question.

So nobody here can help you unless they are affiliated with the company and you won't share the company name, so you are done here.

either the bike is hot and dude is trying to find out what he stole by being coy, or at about the time that this thread finds its way to the bottom of the page (i.e. when he's no longer receiving any attention), the op will then throw out what his frame brand is and state something in a condescending manner about how he was performing an experiment intended to get people in a tizzy, and we all fell for it.

blah, blah, pathetic, blah

retriever7

Oh, please. I'm not asking everyone for help, just those who choose to respond to the thread. Second, it's of no consequence to the responder. What's the fascination with the brand and model?

retriever7

You've been reading too many conspiracy theory novels

brianbeech

I'd hate to be associated with a tizzy, although I've been associated with worse; BF for instance.

retriever7

Thanks for your input.

brianbeech

Soooooo, you posted on a public internet forum where any and everyone can respond and now you're pretending that you're selective in who you intended to 'help'?

And everyone here is a cyclist, i think, of course they're fascinated with brand and model. I'm sure you took it much further than that by being even interested in MFG origin. Seriously, have you taken your meds today?

Velo Gator

I bet it's a Scattante.

coasting 

don't steal bikes, bro.

sbxx1985 

Sounds Italian. Those sneaky Italians.

Velo Gator

Is it a Fuji? That sounds foreign.

brianbeech

That sounds Asian! Stay away!!!

MDcatV

fuji those are some good apples
