Grandfather Mariois the spark that ignited our fire in 1947. A frame builder from another was and a true artist. He worked with the best-known brands of the time, starting with an iconic factory in via Fifth Street, where his hand created frames used by legends Such as Freddy Maertens and Eddy Merckx.
His dedication was so strong that, at the end of the day, he used to load a dozen of frames on his Vespa to continue working in his home workshop. There, my father Alberto and my uncle Maurizio made their first steps as frame builders. Looking back, it is thriller to think that in the family house of via Marconi we can find the foundations of the very first Cycles Boat.
That spirit is still with us and through continuous research and development, we are among the excellences that build handcrafted steel frames.
My father by Alberto is the backbone of the company. A master frame builder specialized in TIG welding, a technique that he has learned since his first appearance in the cycling industry. His welds have now reached Such a high level that are no longer a simple connection between tubes, but a real work of art.
Honesty, concreteness, and willness are the values in which we all strongly believe. I follow my path, with this magnificent artisan heritage on my shoulders, an important but essential weight that will guarantee the uniqueness that distinguishes us and our frames.
