Towards the end of every summer, when the swallows start to think about their journey south, Pegoretti builds Duende CX frames. However, unless you’re a fan of cantilever brake, wide-tire cyclocross frames, the CX may have passed you by.
After fielding requests for an update to this beloved Pegoretti frame, they decided to add a new model to the Duende family, the Duende Rock & Roll. The new frame blends the all-terrain heritage of the CX with the spirit of their road frames and takes off for pastures new with the versatility to ride on any surface.
The Duende Rock & Roll features custom Columbus XCR stainless steel tubing, disc brakes, and a new carbon fibre fork, 'Piron', that accepts up to 40mm of tyres. It's a radically different design to our Falz fork, necessarily so, because the Rock & Roll is built for versatility.
As an alroad frame, the Duende Rock & Roll blends superb responsiveness with telling comfort and the modularity of wider tyres. All-weather optional add-ons like mudguard mounts allow the frame to shoulder the worst conditions without skipping a beat. However, with the option of rack mounts and a switch to flat bars, the Duende Rock & Roll turns into a fast city commuter. For those who look beyond the tarmac, the Duende Rock & Roll equips the modern explorer for the fields, trails and generally less pristine conditions that come with following your curiosity, wherever that may lead.
Lakeside Bicycles offers the Duende Rock and Roll as a frameset and would be happy to consult with you about a complete bike or a parts package to compliment your Pegoretti frameset. The Duende Rock and Roll comes with a Piron fork and a custom designed Chris King D11 headset. It takes a 31.6 seatpost and a 33.6mm front derailleur clamp. The bottom bracket is English threaded. The Duende Rock and Roll is manufactured in standard geometries in 1cm increments from 45 to 63cm as well as by special order, in custom geometries. Pegoretti frames can be ordered in any current design including Panel, CIavete, or in solid colors. Duende Rock and Roll's can be ordered set up for mechanical road, mechanical CX, or wireless; and to include fender and rack mounts (the Piron fork already has them).

Pegoretti's Duende takes its name from a concept in Spanish art that deals with a heightened state of emotion and authenticity typically associated with Flamenco.
While not quite as stiff as the Round, Mxxxxxo or Responsorium, Duende’s aesthetic is more classic than esoteric. The Duende is well suited for someone seeking a comfortable all-day bike that does everything well. The tubing – Columbus ZONA – is still “oversized” in the front triangle to optimize stiffness, but with its rear triangle boasting traditional, tapering rear stays and more conventional dropouts for improved comfort. We offer the Duende as a standard or Cycle Cross frameset, or you can custom order in the geometry of your choice in any of the currently available color schemes includeing Panel, Ciavete or solid colors.

For those unfamiliar with the C64’s lineage, the C-series is a handmade carbon bicycle dynasty. It’s iconic for its crimped tube shapes and carbon lugs yet harks back to the stylish looks of classic steel builders. All C-bikes have always been available in custom geometry, and they’ve been at the forefront when it comes to technology, too.
While some have complained that the C64 looks very similar to its predecessor, a major visual change is in the seat tube and seatpost. Where the C60 used a lug to join the top tube, seat tube and seatstays, the C64’s lug and seat tube are moulded as a single piece. It means the frame is a little more like a monocoque carbon frame and can use the same aerodynamically shaped seatpost as Colnago’s V2-R.
One of the biggest changes is a very simple one. Where the C60 struggled to fit 25mm tyres, the C64 boasts clearance of at least 28mm.
In a polls of professional riders taken every year since the introduction of the C40 in 1994, when asked what bike they would most prefer to ride the overwhelming choice has been the Colnago C-frame.
For more information please contact the Colnago experts of Lakeside Bicycles by phone (W-F 10-7, Sat 10-6 or Sun 12-5) at 503-699-8665 or via e-mail at Info@Lakeside-Bikes.com. One final note: The BDBL 54s frame listed here is a 2019 model and is the only frame we have available.
Since the debut of the C40, Colnago’s C-series frames have combined history and technology along with a soupcon of passion and guts. The C60 is no exception.
Ernesto Colnago decided: It must be stiffer, and lighter, but also must retain the company’s iconic Master star-shaped tubes. It must be built for longevity, and that ride quality must be the primary goal. It must be fast, but there is no need to eek every ounce of performance at the expense of style. “An emotional bike, with soul,” Ernesto says. Italian soul manifested in a technological tour de force.
Like all 'C' models, the C60 was built in Colnago’s Cambiago, Italy, facility, across the street from the home of Ernesto Colnago and painted at Colnago's facility in Tuscany. The company’s premier frames, including the steel Master x Lite and the C-series, are still “fatto in Italia."
The C60 retained the C59's Master star shaped, lugged tubes, is 140 grams lighter and a lot stiffer. Similarities end there. Compared with the C59, everything is bigger, wider, and stiffer.
Lakeside Bicycles currently has one C60 in stock, a 55cm standard geometry frame in the MHCF color. Guaranteed to accept a 25mm tire (though, when pressed, Colnago admitted that most 28mm tires will fit as well.) Warranty is three years if registered within 11 days of purchase or 2 years otherwise. The frame is complete with matching fork, seatpost and headset. If you have any questions, please contact the Colnago experts of Lakeside Bicycles by phone (W-F 10-7, Sat 10-6, or Sun 12-5) at 503-699-8665 or via e-mail at Info@Lakeside-Bikes.com.
Developed with a precise objective: maximum performance uphill. Fulcrum’s new Speed 25 marry lightness and handling in a low profile wheel, which is perfect to conquer peaks and enjoy the downhills, thanks to the application of Fulcrum’s premier technologies.
The inspiration for the development of the Speed 25 were the race-winning Racing Light XLR. An extremely successful and popular wheel both with the general public and with the professional racers who used them for mountain stages. The Speed 25 have a 26 mm profile, which is symmetrical on the front and asymmetrical on the rear, to optimise the sweet spot between lightness and aerodynamics. With an official weight of only 1,285 grams, they are the ideal wheel for cyclists looking to post their best times uphill, but also for ultra-cyclists who have to deal with adverse weather conditions and want a stable and reliable wheel even in strong gusts of wind.
The Speed 25 have been developed in a disc-brake version, with an inner rim width of 21mm and Fulcrum’s proprietary technologies, MoMag™ and DIMF. The minimally-designed hubs use USB™ ceramic bearings. Lightness, handling and smoothness are the key aspects of the wheels’ performance.

Until the end of 2010 Pegoretti frames accept a standard 1 1/8 headset. The diameter of the head tube for this standard varies from a minimum of 36 to a maximum of 36.5 mm for steel frames. This entailed a limit in terms of coupling with the down tube, as larger diameters of 36.5 requiring adapted shaped or ellipsoid down tube in the area of the joint. Using a 38mm diagonal coupling was rather difficult.
At the end of 2010 Dario Pegoretti decided to increase the diameter of the head tube in order to obtain an optimal coupling in terms of milling and coupling with the head tube, what interested him was to be able to use a down tube free from crushed forms and adaptations as with the old diameter. He decided to raise this parameter up to 40.2mm, of course this has required the development of a dedicated headset.
Chris King has produced a modified diameter and insertion depth set for this headtube and called it D11. The result is a reliable, strong and perfectly round joint. During the development of the headset and the resulting head tube Daro decided to increase the diameter of the down tube which now stands at 39mm.
The new headset design continues to use the proven bearings and components of King's standard headsets, but the cups have a larger diameter skirt where they are pressed into the head tube. Also this skirt is longer than the standard giving better support to the head tube. The shape of the cups has been modified to flow better with steel and / or titanium frames.
This headset works equally well with the Falz fork and other 1-1/8” forks as the bearing sizes have not been changed. It features Chris King’s Grip-Lock fastening system as well as King’s 10-y
