There’s something different about a Battaglin. Maybe it’s the way the steel hums beneath you as you ride. Maybe it’s knowing your frame was welded by hand in a small workshop in the same region where Giovanni Battaglin built his legacy.
At Lakeside Bicycles, we believe that an exceptional bike should be tailored to fit your body, style, and riding goals. That’s why we’re proud to offer Battaglin bikes, some of the finest handcrafted frames available today. They’re the perfect platform for custom builds, ensuring you have that special bike built with care by the experts.
The Legacy of Battaglin
Battaglin was founded by Giovanni Battaglin, a former Giro d’Italia and Vuelta a España winner. Officina Battaglin is a brand rooted in Italian racing heritage. Every Battaglin bicycle frame is handcrafted in the Veneto region of Italy, combining old-world craftsmanship with cutting-edge materials and finishes. When you choose a Battaglin bicycle, you’re investing in a legacy of performance, prestige, and precision.
Why Battaglin is Ideal for Custom Builds
Made-to-Measure Geometry
Every Battaglin bike frame is built to your exact specifications. Not just height and inseam, but rider posture, reach, and pedaling dynamics! This results in a bike that fits you like a glove, maximizing comfort and efficiency on every ride.
Timeless Steel Construction
Battaglin specializes in modern steel frames that offer the classic feel of traditional craftsmanship with modern responsiveness. Steel has natural vibration-dampening properties that make for an incredibly smooth ride, while still being highly durable and easy to maintain.
Custom Paint and Finish Options
Your Battaglin bike is a blank canvas. You can choose between beautiful paint schemes, metallic finishes, chrome lungs, and personalized detailing to create a one-of-a-kind look that reflects your personal style. No two Battaglin bikes look the same, because no two riders are the same.
Handcrafted, Not Mass-Produced
Each frame is built one at a time, with passion and attention to detail. This artisanal approach ensures top-tier quality and allows full customization from start to finish.
