Re: Old Ciocc
The original 'Mr. Ciocc' is still alive although he does not build much anymore. The name has been purchased by a new owner who continues to make frames, although they do not have the 'artisinal allure' of the frames being discussed here.
Or so I am told on Italian forums.

Re: Old Ciocc
I had just seen a Ciocc frame and fork up for auction recently on ebay. The owner even had pic of the bike all built up with modern campy gear and what not. Very nice bikes. Just out of curiosity is one limited to the old school stem or can the modern ones be used in addition to a more modern carbon fork?

While I currently have a vintage Cinelli stem in a threaded carbon fiber fork on 90s vintage Trek, I have a quill adapter on a threaded carbon fiber fork on an 80s vintage Peugeot + a threadless carbon fiber fork on an 80s vintage Olmo. If there was a framebuilder in my-neck-of-the-woods, I would have him/her put a longer/(threadless) steerer on some of my steel forks. |

Re: Old Ciocc
WARNING: old thread
 I dunno why, but Ciocc have always been one of my favourites, and late last year I was able to get a N.O.S. alu Ciocc frame (1" steerer) for $800AUS, so I'm pretty happy, coz it's uber sexy. 3.Anyhoo, they've recntly changed the decals to some new crappy "modern" ones, so if anyone wants one, it might be best to snap up an old with the old stickers while you still can. There are quite a few for sale onlineMine is made with Dedacciai T6 Energy alu. It's nothing special, and some people would probably find a bit on the 'rough' side, but it's a pretty stiff and is good criterium bike, I guess. It's 58cm, and the frame alone is 1520g. |

Re: Old Ciocc

Anyway, I just noticed this on the other forum: http://www.smartcycles.com/frame_closeouts_list.htm There are about 90 Ciocc frames on there! |
