1939 Umberto Dei Marca Oro A 2733

Umberto Dei was a successful racer and a bicycle mechanic apprentice at the same time. In the late 1890s he started to build his own bikes. First just for friends and soon for other riders.
Umberto Dei’s desire was to build the best bikes possible, always refining his techniques. His bikes became quite expensive but also considerably smoother to ride than his competitor’s. He and his employees acquired an expertise and fame which was second to none. For the 1936 Olympic Games, Umberto Dei delivered bicycles to the teams of 9 foreign countries.
