Pegoretti Duende - Italian Gravel - La Dolce Bicicletta

As one would expect, Pegoretti circumnavigate the gravel genre with on their own artisinal terms. If Federico Fellini rode gravel it would almost certainly be aboard a Pegoretti Duende. Pegoretti always take the beautiful road but never the easy one. The Duende has been developed with a proprietary Columbus XCR stainless-steel tubeset and carbon Piron (pitchfork) fork. Matt's bike is a stunning jewel imbued with skill and flair from another era.

  • "Hey Julian and Phil, I hope you are both well. I just completed a 21 hour week on my new 165mm cranks and I am in love. They feel so so great! Thank you for all your help. I’ve never felt so comfortable on my bike before. All the best, Hannah"

    Hannah Barnes

    National Champion / Professional Bike Rider

  • "I'm new to cycling so needed some support on finding a bike that would be right for me. Julian couldn't have been kinder or more supportive, he took time to find out what I wanted from my cycling and then looked closely at my physical structure to ensure that the bike is a comfortable fit for me. It really is a 5 star service and far exceeded my expectations."

  • "Very very personalised service. You arrive, they expect you, greet you by first name, have checked your file from past visits and set out very clearly what the process will be, what issues they're looking to address and how and they are happy to take the time to walk you through everything in layman's terms. Almost any professional service entity could learn a lot from how Cyclefit works. "
