The Bicycle Academy has been a stepping-stone for many frame building brands. A place where some get their first taste of mitring and brazing, or perhaps where they go to hone their skills. Wether launching a brand, establishing one, or even just as a place to build a one-off with your own hands, TBA is responsible for hundreds, if not thousands of hand-made steel creations and helping keep the art of frame building alive and in the consciousness of people who perhaps might never have the opportunity to learn.

This one is by a person named Marco Fabiani… but you probably already know that because the name is right there on the down tube! Designed by Marco and his wife and simply made real in ur booth, this bike features a timeless classic “red, white and blue” and gives it a contemporary appearance with a hardline split whilst pairing it with the traditional signature on the top tube that you’ll see on many classic steel lightweights. Columbus branding where you need it. Gloss clear flow coat throughout. This personal passion project is now legitimised and elevated by a premium custm finish.
