Finest Italian hand made bikes.
BELLA CIAO is Italy in her purest, in her most tempting form. With three different product ranges – CORVO CITTA, INGEGNERE and NEOREALISTA – we explore the essence of pedal-powered urban mobility. What we produce is contemporary bicycle culture with both a heritage and an attitude.
BELLA CIAO bicycles are just what a bike ought to be: elegant, lightweight and versatile. Fit for everyday use, classic and unassuming, yet with an unmistakable sports DNA. An uncompromised bike with no frills.
In the best tradition of Italian bicycle manufacturing BELLA CIAO cycles are reduced to pure elegance and performance. They reflect the quintessence of our experience of living, working and cycling in northern Italy for many years.
BELLA CIAO frames are built by one of the traditional Italian road bike manufacturers. To perfect the typical look and feel of classical Italian bicycles, we allowed for some German and Japanese components where we feel tempted. Japan like no other culture shows unbelievable dedication and attention to detail when it comes to manufacturing small parts. And German perfectionism is quite unbeatable when it comes to bringing everything into a perfectly reliable harmony. That is why we assemble BELLA CIAO bicycles individually in Germany.
The result is bicycles that are in a very natural, unassuming and very spectacular. Elegance of classic vintage bikes meets contemporary engineering of the highest quality.
The result is a perfectly achieved, truly modern minimalism. A minimalism that echoes the historic origins of BELLA CIAO. – “The Poetry of Freedom”. – “La Poesia della Libertà”.
BELLA CIAO. A bicycle like no other.
