Ryffranck C-Record !
Hi !
I just wanted to show off / share my newest acquisition since these Québec made bikes are so rare even in Québec.
The frame seems to be top notch and exactly my size so it might be a keeper. If you want to read more about the maker and the bikes visit this website . Each frame is made to order and silver brazed. If anyone has ridden those I'd like to know how they compare to Marinoni.
Enjoy!

Funny thing. My son, who lives in Toronto, contacted me today asking about these bikes. There is a frame set for sale in Toronto on Cl for $500.00 and he wanted to know if he should buy it or not. I could not advise since this is the first I have heard of the make. Looks to be a pretty nice bicycle. Let's see close ups of drops, and underside bottom bracket. My guess is the bike will ride just great if it is anything like my Marinoni.

Fantastic bikes! You two and KonAaronSnake are making my "bike" day. Beautiful bikes Tuz and Mainducoyote. Mainducoyote, are those Cinelli bars, maybe 64's? I can't quite make out the model numbers. What Cinelli stem as well? And Tuz, same questions for you please. I picked up a sister DeRosa to my wife's Primato three weeks ago, just in my size. Some fit issues, and I really like what I see here. If you might list out some specs when you get some time. Thanks.

Thanks for showing this to us. I've never seen one of these bikes before and it's simply gorgeous.

Edit: Gomano these are 3TTT bars/stem. But it now sports a Cinelli 1A w/ 64s actually! Also I recently asked Sr. Marinoni about Ryffranck (he paints his bikes), I think he's retired. And while I'm here here's a pic of the seat cluster.

Fab bike! The only thing you need now is a 1st gen rear mechanical to match the rest of the C - Record.

Luck and $ 
Thanks for your comments. I'm disapointed, I just measured the frame and the seat tube is 53cm C to C , I'm 5'9'' with long legs. This frame is definitely everything I like about a road frame ( quality , exclusivity , flat crown fork and looks) but too small... I also didn't expect everything to be British threaded (which is a good thing). Oh yeah every tube is rifled so I'm gessing it's at least Columbus SLX.
Anyways I might built it up for me just to see what it looks like and because I can.

Hi !
I just wanted to show off / share my newest acquisition since these Québec made bikes are so rare even in Québec.
The frame seems to be top notch and exactly my size so it might be a keeper. If you want to read more about the maker and the bikes visit this website . Each frameposted is made to order and silver brazed. If anyone has ridden those I'd like to know how they compare to Marinoni.
Enjoy!

The OP hasn’t posted in a number of years, it’s possible you won’t hear from him.
