Lauro's Review: 200 Km Randonnée with a Forgione Frame

Recently, my friend Lauro, a passionate cyclist and experienced participant in numerous randonnées, shared his experience with his new Forgione frame. After completing one of his first long rides, Lauro wanted to share his thoughts and thank me for my work. His words tell the story of a 200 km cycling journey with 3000 meters of elevation gain, putting the handcrafted Forgione frame to the test.

Hello Vincenzo:

First my apologies, it has been a long time, too long, since I last sent you an email. Things have been very hectic & busy. Some travel and too much work. I have had the frame built up now for probably close to 2 months now, but very little riding. Just a few short rides around where I live. That all changed today. 

Hi Vincenzo, here I am to express my feelings after trying the MTB for the first time! I want to make a premise that I think can help you understand my words, so I remember that I am not a biker with years of experience, quite the contrary; even though I have always been sensitive to the charm of MTB, until a year ago I had never owned one.
