Legend Factory – Marco Bertoletti
Welcome to the world of bespoke, hand built frames from Legend.
Owning a Legend offers more than just an opportunity to buy a bicycle. Here you are in the home of a master craftsman. The distinction Legend frames offer comes from the decades of frame building knowledge, the rigorous process of manufacture, the quality of the raw materials used, the quality of the machinery at the factory and of course the ‘know how’ of the small and highly skilled workforce.
