EN IT HOME WHO WE ARE GILCO ORIGINAL PROJECTS TODAY CHASSIS TODAY BIKE CONTACTS BICYCLES Gilberto Colombo is responsible for the projects that, in the second half of the twentieth century, made the Italian bicycle most famous in the world. Among its revolutionary innovations "Organ for the stable connection of tubular elements having different angles" (patent n ° 203553) and "Series of tubular elements with differentiated section sections for the construction of bicycle frames" (patent n ° 203593) ). In the Eighties, at the request of Ernesto Colnago, Gilberto developed the famous "stellar" S / 4 profile, from which the legendary Master frame was born . Among Gilberto Colombo's most famous projects of recent years, moreover, the Master Pista (from 1985), the Master Dual (an idea from 1987 that Colnago will also develop, subsequently, to create the Carbitubo series, in double fiber tube carbon; the Gilco frames of the current collection are also inspired by this original Colombo project). For Columbus, the Multishape frame series, born from a 1986 project and produced by Columbus in 1989. For Cinelli, the 1985 Laser , which in 1991, after Gilberto's death, will obtain the Compasso d'Oro. The technical value of these projects, made with Trafiltubi technology, is confirmed by the fact that even today, far from being outdated, they are still so much appreciated as to represent the highest quality in terms of the use of steel in the cycle sector. . As part of the Milan Design Week 2016, an excursus on Gilco's projects from the 1940s to today was exhibited at the Spazio Industriale in via dei Canzi: watch the video • read the review 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 AUTO PROJECTS BIKE PROJECTS OTHER PROJECTS The Gilco brand is: Trafiltubi Via A.
