A tailor-made bike designed by Pininfarina and realized by 43 Milano. The name – referring to the custom-built high-performance exclusive cars – the Pininfarina Fuoriserie is a custom limited edition bike with unique features.
Pininfarina Fuoriserie
The Pininfarina Fuoriserie combines Pininfarina pure design and the 43 Milano experience and craftsmanship. To design the elegant bike, Pininfarina took inspiration from the iconic tailor-made cars of the Thirties, to create an elegant and pure shape enriched by the combination of modern and classical materials.
The frame is in fact made of tubes in chromed steel hand- made weld by skilled artisans and adorned by a walnut briar-root coating.
References to the heritage are also detectable in the handlebars and in the seat, dressed with a The Bridge leather whose inspiration comes from the interlaced leather used in the interiors of the Lancia Astura Bocca, an iconic model designed by Pininfarina in 1936.
In contrast to the traditional nods to heritage, there are several innovations in the bike. The booster system Bike+ optimizes the cyclist’s energy through a miniaturized electric engine, allowing the rider to cover longer distances and to replace other means of transportation.
The led lighting system based on a brand-new high performance lamp. The “connect the plug system” allows you to recharge mobile phones through the dynamo.
The uniqueness of the bike is enhanced by custom-made bags realized by The Bridge and by the Pininfarina logo engraved on the brake knobs.
The bike will be produced in a limited edition of 30 units referring to the ‘Thirties”, in which Pininfarina was founded and the years which gave life to outstanding cars as the Lancia Astura Bocca.
“Pininfarina Fuoriserie bike is a true Pininfarina project” states Chairman Paolo Pininfarina. “It blends our heritage with innovative solutions, it is elegant and exclusive but also highly functional. It’s a Fuoriserie with an eco-friendly soul.”
Details of the Pininfarina Fuoriserie:
– Frame made of steel tubes Deda ZERO DR with hand-made microcast welds . Integral chrome plating
– Family of weldless tubes made ??of steel 25CrMo4 hardened in oil at 880° C and recovered in a controlled atmosphere. The accurate process of temper (TR state) achieves tensile strengths up to 1350 N/mm2, with a strong homogeneity of crystalline grain. All transactions are followed by treatment of strain relaxation, to minimize residual stresses.
