  • Rich & I set off on a ride to celebrate the legacy of the California-made Masi Gran Criterium bicycles. Note my incorrect pronunciation of Faliero Masi's name in the video and consider this a correction. It's "Faliero" and not "Falerio".

    Those are beautiful bicycles. I am sure they are so enjoyable because you have rolling masterpieces.

    Cool bikes. I really need to take some time and watch Breaking Away again, it’s been more than twenty years. Thanks for sharing.

    I have some old friends that used to ride Masi's. Oh I wish I'd bought them all those years ago when they sold them to buy the next "best" thing. I just didn't know.........As they say "hind sight is 20/20".

      I don't think there was much appreciation for vintage bikes say twenty or thirty years ago, Matthew. They were just "old", and everyone wanted the next, newest thing. Keep an eye on the local garage sales. You never know what might show up! Thanks for watching!

    The Masi in Breaking away was orange not red :)

      Just did some more research- Looks like the bike in the movie was Masi "Tomato Red" which, when you look at it, does get pretty close to orange in some shots.

      No the only California connection is
      a Torelli road frame.
      Are you familiar with this make?

      I purchased the frame from a bike shop in Calif.,after experiencing a broken derailleur hanger.
      So I bought Corsa Strada frame,which I found to be one of the most comfortable riding bikes.
      On request the supplied me with a straight chrome fork, similar to the Colnagos of early 90’s..
      Did your Torelli have barrel adjusters on the head tube?
