Italian carbon fiber artisan

is that a tank or a tank cover? Why so big?

In the bar pad??? Looks like foam rubber?

looks like favio is building 100 carbon fibre bikes in the states atm.supposed to be ready for sale in late 14/15?

heres a pic.the bikes use rmz 450/250 engines apparently.

That is so badass! If I absolutely have to note one flaw it would be that the shrouds seem to be a bit of an afterthought and don't really flow that well. But that's not really a huge deal and just being nitpicky

His stuff is real cool , but unless you have the ability to Ultrasonically test carbon , which very few people have , structural carbon stuff is beyond practicality for anyone other than factory efforts

yeah he gives a good insight about the durability/cost etc in the link.the company race tested a carbon framed yzf 250 for four years with no problem's at all.an english lady racer is still racing the bike now apparently.

That looks so badass. There was a good article in Dirtrider Downunder about his bikes-according to Cavallini, frames cost $6000 to make, so hate to think of what he would sell one for, and whether he would actually sell them

and people thought Aluminum bikes were too rigid.

The guy makes BEAUTIFUL stuff and it's a lot of product for the money (his gas tanks, for example).

As for the frame being too rigid? Seems to me that a Specialized Roubaix & other frames like it are engineered to be plush. You can use the very same principles on a motorcycle frame & Flavio knows all the tech necessary to make it right.
