Today's Bike: 1974 Malagnini

Here's some classic Italian steel, although reader Don G's choice of crankset leaves something to be desired ...



Attached is my recently restored Vittorio Malagnini, circa 1974/75. The restoration and painting was performed by Ed. Litton, Richmond, CA. Originally built in Erbe, Italy.
