Light, powerful, flowing: like a breath of wind. This is VENTO, the latest creation from the Italian brand TITICI. A frame that marks a new stage of evolution in cycling design and engineering: light and agile like a frame for the climb, aerodynamic and “clean” like a model for the final sprint. Characterised by the total integration of the cables and the patented PAT technology that combines performance and comfort in a revolutionary way. “Hand-crafted and made-to-measure in Italy – from the geometries to the choice of colours – it is extraordinarily pleasant to ride: both on the legendary Alpine passes and on the fast stretches of the plains. A high-performance and versatile frame that knows no compromises.
THE NEW VENTO. Starting from 1961 we always fight to introduce new innovation in function and design, using the Italian creativity. We never stop in front of rules or competitors’ comments. But when the UCI changed the dimensions tubing for the road bike frames, we understood that maybe the Swiss technicians found our PAT so interesting that should be make legal. We worked hard on the existing PAT, new shape, new lamination, new carbon blend and, after 2 years, we are proud to launch the new PA , now 10 mm thick to the new Vento. Handmade to measure in Italy, entirely customizable from geometry down to paint job , extraordinarily pleasant to ride: both on the legendary Alpine passes and on the fast stretches on the flat. Less weight, more stiffness, same comfort! A new era for your road riding experience!
NEW PAT10, UCI APPROVED. In the new VENTO model, the shape of the PAT tube has been redesigned according to the new UCI frame tube thickness standard. The modification allowed us to obtain the approval of the frame by the international federation, while maintaining its peculiar characteristics of performance, comfort, lightness and functionality. The top tube flattens out to now a thickness of 10 millimeters, the thinnest in the world. The particular shape allows the TITICI frame to absorb up to 18% of vibrations more than a standard frame without compromising torsional rigidity. The irregularities of the asphalt are thus not transmitted to the arms and back of the cyclist, riding is more comfortable, precise, safe and stable. At the same time, the rigidity guarantees that the power expressed in pedaling is not dispersed, but transformed into outstanding responsiveness and performance.

TOTAL INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING. The difference can be felt from the very first moment. You only have to look at the front of the frame to appreciate the complete internal routing of the brake and gear cables, resulting in precise lines, pure surfaces and less aerodynamic resistance. Furthermore the 1 1/2” head tube ensures greater control and handling precision, especially on technical descents and fast corners. The shape is inspired by the TITICI F-RI02 model, the first aerodynamic frame in our road range.
ONLY YOURS – MADE-TO-MEASURE IN ITALY. VENTO expresses our construction philosophy in every detail. The exclusive progressive wrapping method allows for the creation of a customized frame that is geometrically calibrated to the millimetre on the basis of the cyclist’s anthropometric data. The integration between rider and bicycle becomes absolute, creating an even more aerodynamic and efficient system. The customisation not only concerns the frame geometries, but also the colouring and graphics including those of the TITICI handlebar and seatpost.
