Named after a Nick Drake song as covered by the jazz pianist Brad Mehldau, Day Is Done is the most recent addition to Dario Pegoretti's lexicon of steel framesets.
Day Is Done was developed as a performance lugged frame using classic construction and the benefits of oversized tubing. The headtube is 7 mm shorter than a tig-welded frame. A “ring” can be added to the upper lug to increase the height if requested.
The Columbus Spirit Niobium tubing is based on the tubeset designed for the Marcelo with modifications to optimize it for lugged construction.. The Cadnezia oversized lugset was developed in a collaboration between Dario and Darrell McCulloch of Llewellyn Bikes in Australia. The rear dropout attachment is amended with a hollow tube through the stays offering an increased surface for brazing and providing a striking visual effect. The brazed tube also increases lateral rigidity of the chainstay at the critical juncture with the dropout.
Building lugged frames is a more gentle and time consuming process that TIG welding. In addition to cutting and milling, each tube must be fitted to a hand tapered lug and then, patiently silver brazed together at relatively low (600o C to 900o C) temperatures. Due to the low temperatures and reenforcing of the lugs, this process results in an extremely strong and readily repairable frame. In the hands of a superior builder working without time constraints, lugged steel represent the pinnacle of bicycle frame esthetics.
“There is a reason for the “holes” in the stays at the dropouts. The small cylinders that are brazed into the stays give more surface area to braze the dropout. Since Dario likes to use non-tapering stays, he can’t use conventional dropouts as there wouldn’t be enough contact area. This is an alternative to using the “hooded” dropouts he uses on the Marcelo and Responsorium that he feels fits better with a lugged frame." -Nelson Frazier, Gita Sporting Goods
Except for the three frames shown above, the Day Is Done is available only by special order with either a Falz carbon or a steel fork at no additional cost.

If you spent any time watching Chris Froome and Team Sky winning the Tour d' France or the Vuelta d' Espana this year, then you are familiar with the Pinarello Dogma F10. With the exception of the harshest cobbled Classics, where the Pinarello K8 is the extraordinarily compliant bike of choice, Pinarello and Team Sky have rejected the current trend of using specialty bikes to suit each stage profile, they have opted for an all-in-one approach. This frame was designed to provide you and Chris Froome a general level of high performance, comfort and durability. The Pinarello Dogma F10 is a darn good bike!
And the numbers support this. The Dogma F10 is 6.3 percent lighter and seven percent stiffer than it's award winning predecessor the F8. The Dogma F10 features a concave downtube design, reducing drag by 12.6 percent and a new fork which contributes another ten percent reduction in drag.
Made from Torayca T1100 1K carbon fibre, the highest tensile strength in the cycling world, all the frame shapes have been updated, improved and strengthened as has the new Onda F10 fork which borrows the dropout fin design from the Bolide time trial bike.
Pinarello has optimized the entire frame for aero efficiency, going so far as to design a bespoke carbon bar-stem, seatpost and Twin Force integrated seat collar for the Dogma F10. Even the design of the saddle was kept in-house.
Despite these changes Pinarello refers to the Dogma F10 as an evolution rather than a revolution. The Dogma F8's geometry remains unchanged as, for the most part, has the rear triangle which was already particularly nice in the Dogma F. The seatstay junction is made using a single merged piece of carbon fibre, which only splits close to the rear wheel and allows for clearance of up to 28c tires. The Pinarello Dogma F10 is designed with internal cable routings for either mechanical or

Named for the Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention song (appears on the 'B' side of the CD release of "Absolutely Free") and for Dario's mother, Big Leg Emma is based on the Marcello with the addition of oversized tubes (22mm chainstays vs. the Marcello's 18mm) and internal re-enforcing gussets. It is, by far, the stiffest steel frame in Dario's stable and is designed for Clydesdales or over-quadded crit specialists. If you need a 60 or 62cm frame, it is probably your baby.
After you hear it described, the design elements of the Big Leg Emma are straight forward: One, that wider diameter tubes are less prone to flexing under load. Two, the down tube and the chainstays directly effect bottom bracket deflection. It is all pretty obvious until you add a sprinkle of Pegoretti genius.
To get there Dario took a page out of Falerio Masi's book (he used a similar technique to stiffen the chainstays of track bikes during the 70's) and added gussets (stiffeners) to the oversized downtube. Prior to welding up the frame, Dario laser cuts several small grooves into either side of the downtube. He then brazes in horizontal anti-flex plates and finishes it off by brazing ornamental covers over the incisions. At the end of the day Dario achieves his goal of an uncompromisingly stiff race frame without sacrificing vertical compliance or aesthetics.
The Big Leg Emma is available as a frameset with a Falz fork. As with all of Dario's frames except the Marcelo and the Duende, Big Leg Emma is available in all the standard, Pegoretti sizes or as a custom and (at no additional cost except for Ciaveta) in any of Dario's current palet of finishes. We ask for a full deposit in return for which I will gently annoy the people at Gita on a weekly basis until your baby arrives. I have no Idea how long it is going to take to get here (18 to 30 months is a guess and probably wrong) but I guarantee it will be worth the wait. The Big leg emma uses a 31.6 mm seatpost, a 31.7 mm front derailleur and a Chris King D11 headset. It comes with a FALZ fork painted to match the frame base color.

An album by the Argentine musician Dino Saluzzi inspired the name of this stainless-steel bicycle. After a lengthy collaboration with Columbus, Dario began production of the Responsorium. Handcrafted from custom drawn Columbus stainless XCr tubesets, the first thing you will notice is the comfort of the ride. XCr is 20% stronger than Columbus Niobium Spirit which means that Dario can use a thinner walled tube with more substantial butting. Coupled with 16mm chainstays (2mm smaller than the Marcelo) the Responsorium is the lightest (100g less than the Marcelo) and most comfortable frame in the Pegoretti line.
The 55cm frame comes in at a respectable 1678g and the Falz fork at 425g. Each frame comes with a Falz fork and Chris King D11 headset. The Responsorium takes a 31.6 mm seatpost and a 32mm front derailleur clamp. As with all Pegorettis it has an Italian threaded bottom bracket. Because XCr is being run exclusively for Pegoretti it will remain in short supply, if you can't find what you are looking for in existing inventories, we suggest you order now. Lead times are over two years and there is little or no chance your dream frame will "just show up".
Earlier versions of the Responsorium are the only Pegoretti with a weight limit, if you are over 180 lb or plan on becoming over 180 lb, you will need to purchase a current version with a FALZ fork and Chris King D11 Headset. The Responsorium uses a 31.6 mm seatpost, a 31.7 front derailleur and Chris King D11 headset. They come with a FALZ fork painted to match the base frame color.
We offer the Responsorium as a standard frameset or you can custom order in the geometry of your choice in any of the currently available color schemes for $5,570 (Venetian Stucco is an additional $300, Ciavette is an additional $750).

Pegoretti's Duende takes its name from a concept in Spanish art that deals with emotion and authenticity, which is extremely applicable to Dario Pegoretti and his beautiful frames. Handcrafted from Columbus Spirit steel tubing, the Duende is optimized for a custom ride feel and excellent efficiency. Its front triangle uses oversize tubes for maximum stiffness and the rear triangle boasts Pegoretti's double-ellipse tapered chainstays for comfort. Plus, the Falz carbon fork (Painted to match the frame's base color) and Chris King D11 headset smooth out the bumps and steers with precision. 31.6 seatpost, braze-on front derailleur.
We offer the Duende as a standard frameset or you can custom order in the geometry of your choice in any of the currently available color schemes for $3,675 (Venetian Stucco is an additional $300, Ciavette is an additional $750).

Unable to find an acceptable replacement for the Reynolds Ouzo Pro, Dario Pegoretti designed his own fork. The result is the Falz (sickle in the Italian dialect that Dario speaks). "Falz" is representative of the shape of the new fork. Dario has always found the aesthetics of tradional curved forks more to his taste than the straight bladed forks so common today. His design starts with the traditional arc of the fork blades and continues with an updated flat-crown design.
Flat-crown forks give a little more compliant ride than sloping crowns as the fork legs are slightly longer allowing for better damping. The crown also offers increased clearance for larger tires. 25 or even 28mm tires will easily fit the Falz. The appearance of the massive flat-crown on the Falz fits well with oversized tubes whether tig-welded or lugged.
To match the stiffness of oversized tubing, the fork must have a high degree of lateral stiffness. This is something Dario has found lacking in severl of the forks he has examined over the last few years.The Falz was designed with more lateral stiffness than virtually any other fork while retaining the compliance derived from the flat-crown design. This makes it the perfect match for the ride his steel frames are noted for. One feature which has become increasingly common in the battle for lightness is the loss of a machinable fork crown.
The Falz has an aluminum cap on the crown which allows for precision machining for alignment of the headset crown race. Some other forks use carbon for this which cannot be machined as precisely and thus can reduce the precision and longevity of the headset. Other features include carbon fork tips and 1-1/8” carbon steerer in an extra-long length to allow use on the largest frames.
The appearance of the Falze has caused a bit of grumbling. Standing alone, it's square-shaped crown and slowly tapered, flat sided legs are unique and startling. Once you stick it in a D11 the large diameter of head tube and headset take the edge off and result in an attractive statement in which every part benefits aesthetically from the effect of the whole. Dario IS the master.
Once you get the Falz on the road it is clear that Dario has hit a home run. The ride is well controlled and smooth under every circumstance. It integrates perfectly with Dario's frames. Our riders have chosen it as among the best forks for high speed and descending on the market.
The Falz fork serves to further complete and enhance Dario's offerings. Good looking and functional, it is well mannered and comfortable and meets the most exacting standards for a performance

Introducing Zegho:
The Zegho's are nothing less than the redefinition of cycling-specific high performance eyeProtection, produced in an exclusive joint engineering venture between Assos Centro Studio and Carl Zeiss Vision.
Does the world need more eyewear? Probably not. But we — racing-oriented high performance cyclists — do. The ASSOS Werksmannschaft (their in-house product development team), feels that the currently available generic sports glasses could be improved to meet the specific demands of cycling. But why does Assos bother?
Assos is not an eyewear company. Assos is acycling body R&D + refinement laboratory. At Assos they understand cycling and focus exclusively on cycling. They do not produce multi-sports items, nor do they engineer their products for use in other sports. And they never give in to the temptation of increasing sales by broadening their focus.
It is this “exclude-all-other-uses” engineering approach that Assos applied when they started to develop the first cycling-specific high performance eyeProtection four years ago. It was clear to Assos that they must explore new paths and join forces with the best in class to accomplish what they set out to do.
Zegho is the combined effort of nine European specialty eyewear makers, each providing a specifically designed component, each manufactured following strict quality guidelines, and all orchestrated by ASSOS Centro Studio and its two dedicated eyewear development engineers.
Features:
- Carl Zeiss Tunnel View lens technology, custom made for Zegho. Patent pending
- 180 degree field of view
- Assos zOd.Tec zero optical distortion, certified optical class 1:superior
- Weight 27.5 grams
- clickFace technology. Proadaptive skinTouch material ensures a stable fit, minimizing movement under seaty, shock-filled conditons
- ZeroPressure technologhy: adaptive, ultraflex composite frame, mathematically designed to calibrate the perfect ratio of material to shape
- 100% UV protection
- Precisision made by hadn, by dedicated eyewear specialists, one by one, in limited numbers
ZEGHO is eyeProtection equipment created by ASSOS Centro Studio and its friends at Carl Zeiss Vision. Zegho feels different than any other sunglasses you have ever put on your face. Riding with Zegho, you feel that it is engineered to be your ideal high performance cycling companion.
Only one question remains: Do you wear your Zegho over or under your helmet strap? There are two philosophies:
- One: Over the strap. In case of a crash, they are free to come loose, reducing the risk of a hinge breaking on impact and hurting your face.
- Two: Under the strap. The majority of the ASSOS Werksmannschaft (in this case the Assos factory team) chooses this option. In case of a crash, it helps keep your eye protection in place, possibly reducing the risk of eye injury.
Zegho is the ultimate high performance cycling-specific eye protection. Unfortunately, Assos requires that we must inf
