Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Identifying frame

Dear bike forums community,

I am in Italy and looking for a new frame for a road bike project. I came across a listing of a frame with "Daccordi" on it. The seller claims that the frame is not from Daccordi but simply painted at the Daccordi "Factory". The original manufacturer is unknown to the seller but he mentions that the bike is made out of Columbus Genius tubes. Does anyone knows if "Daccordi" actually paints bikes from other manufacturers? if so do they check the bike frame for issues before the actual paint? Thanks

It's not uncommon that bikes of some brands are actually made at the factories that belong to another brand. The bikes are still made to the specs of the brand that is selling them. So it's not like the bikes are the same even if they look similar.

I have no idea about your particular instance you mentioned.

Welcome to BF!
