Hello again, Dario.

Thought of a few more questions for you.

1. What is the most important thing you learned from Milani?
2. With regard to your 2012 work, did you redesign/adjust your frames to go with your new fork?

Good day to you

Dario,

now that it seems that the "fork all the world's waiting for" is arrived......and you can see the result of your work in your hands....what's your first opinion about that?

Thank you!

Dear Dario,

Will it be possible to get a Pegoretti repainted by you? If the owner has used it, and paint is damaged or if he just wants a new paintscheme for instance?

Bontie

Ciao Bontie,
sure it is possible , it's a service we use to offer.
have a nice day

Hi Dario
I have noticed that some frame builders use different thickness tubing depending on the weight and style of the rider and the purpose of the frame. Do you think this is necessary?
regards
Paul

Ciao,
sometimes we know who will be the user of the frame sometimes not , in the first case we can adapt the tubeset to riding style or weight of the rider to have the better balancing performance , in the second case normally i use the more conservative choice , in my case i have the same diameter but two different thickness for the down , top and chainstays tubes .
have a nice day

Ciao ,
from a "philosophical" point of view the most important thing i learned from Milani was the respect and devotion for the work , Milani was the greatest work organizer that i knew , i am still using today some proceeding methods to build the frames .
Yes , this year i have changed a bit the geometry of my frames , the possibilities to have a 50 mm fork rake need to adapt the head angle on the small frames, there are some very small changes in the lenght of the head tube , and i have changed the lenght of the top tube for the 55 stock size.
have a nice day

Mr. Pasquino,
as you know , for sure it is more easy and less expensive finding a fork on the market than designing your own fork , finding a good company to produce it and adjust all the problems that you can find during the process .
I would like to remind that we have performed all the design job here in house .
Was just a challenge and a dream for me trying to have my own carbon fork.
Naturally to understand all the commitment and difficulty to perform a job like this for a very small company like mine , recognize and appreciate it requires a bit of cycling culture.

A big thanks to everyone who have the patience and kindness to wait.

Zhang, :-)
every minute of superb ridin' on your frame + fork will be well worth the wait. No money can buy the time I have spent in your workshop, discovering the reasons behind your design choices, checking the prototypes, sharing thoughts, etc...
See you soon!

Ciao Eric,
The real reason was not the school but in Verona lived a beautiful girl that I liked a lot, I race as an amateur and the father of this girl, who was Gino Milani , was coach of an amateur team. Milani asked me if I wanted to race for this team and I said yes.  I had no interest in the framebuilding but I had little interest in the money because

Did you get the girl?

I see the latest carbon on offer and I feel hollow lust grown of advertising. I see timeless creations of Dario and I feel the soul of a man who has lived.

Dario, please build me something.

Something that will always feel new but with a connection tendered through thousands of intimate miles.

A bike for life.

Did you get the girl?

Ohhhh yes ,
We got married in 1981.
