The partnership between Gino Bartali and the Santamaria Brothers of Novi Ligure began in 1949 when Bartali decided to found his own team equipped with bicycles bearing his name. The commercial enterprise was not very successful and from 1955 Bartali bikes were made by the Margherita brothers from Genoa. Subsequently also Galmozzi, who had built the Legnano track frames with which Bartali ran, began a short collaboration with the Tuscan champion.
Bartali bikes, with their unmistakable yellow livery, are particularly rare, and highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Gino Bartali.
The bike presented is in excellent condition and is original in every component.
It is fitted with a Campagnolo Gran Sport groupset. Campagnolo ParigiRoubaix rear derailleur. Gnutti ribbed crankset. Ambrosio Champion handlebar with Ambrosio Champion iron stem. Balilla brakes. Nisi rims.
The crankset, saddle, pedals, cranks, brakes, headset and seat collar are marked Bartali.
A conservative restoration was carried out on the bike. It has been disassembled and greased. It is ready to be ridden.
