Elio is the next evolution of Pegoretti’s design language. Faster, more assertive, yet still grounded in craft. Built from custom Columbus XCR stainless steel and finished by hand in Verona, Elio carries a rare combination of speed, clarity, and depth. It’s Pegoretti’s most modern platform to date. Fully internal routing, support for integrated cockpits, and UDH-compatible dropouts make it functionally up to date without sacrificing serviceability. The chassis features a 42 mm down tube and a tapered top tube, giving it a strong backbone and a remarkably reactive front end. Handling is precise and intuitive, with a low center of gravity and a stiffness profile that rewards deliberate efforts. Elio is electronic-only and disc brake only, with clearance for 32 mm tires and a BSA bottom bracket. The carbon fork feels sharp and composed, and the ride quality holds together over long miles. Paint options span Ciavete, geometric, and solid finishes, each one rendered with Pegoretti’s signature touch. We like Elio because it moves the Pegoretti story forward without losing the soul. It’s a steel bike that sits confidently alongside the best in modern road.
