Default 62 cm Faggin

62 cm Faggin Road Bike. One of the great Italian marks.
$1250 and shipping.

The top tube standover is 34"
From the late 90's. The peak of steel bicycles.
Faggin (Fah-jeen) wasn't "mass produced" but was a small specialty builder
that did superior work.

It weighs in at exactly 21 lbs. This one looks almost brand new!

The Faggin is a great ride. Smooth as silk and steady as a train. Remember
that
a Faggin is as good a steel bike as you can get.

The equipment shown below is either new or in very good shape.
Shifters: Dura Ace 9-Speed
Derailleurs: Ultegra
Cranks: Ritchey Compact
Wheels: Shimano 540
Bars: ITM Pro
Stem: 3T Mutant
Saddle: Specialized Body Geometry
Seat Post: Thompson
no pedals

Faggin was one of the finest bikes from the Venetian area of Italy. Other
great bikes from this region are
Basso and Bataglin. All three were absolutely marvelous bikes though they
didn't have the reputation of the
Colnagos, Masis or De Rosas from Lombardy. Having ridden them all and owned
most of these manufacturers
I can tell you that the Faggin and the Basso are the best bikes I've ridden
bar none.

Steel rides better than anything else and gives you a road feel that no
other material offers. What's more
it can be repaired properly by almost any framebuilder.
