This beautiful Francesco Moser frame from my personal collection is from the 80s and was hand-built using Oria tubing – as were most Moser frames from the time period. In the 80s F. Moser himself designed frames that are still used today as references for classic road, track and racing bikes and any F. Moser frame from the 80s would have been built in Belgium. This is a limited edition pearl white which I had never seen before which made me buy the frame as part of a collection in the first place.
The 1980s were the heyday for F. Moser cycle frames and in the 80s the Chateaux d’Ax pro team (which later became the Gatorade team) used F. Moser frames with its most famous rider other than Moser himself, being Giani Bugno – who famously won the Giro d’Italia while leading from start to finish on a Moser cycle frame.
Francesco Moser was one of the world’s most dominant riders from the mid 70s to the mid 80s and in 1984, won the Giro d’Italia.

Hi SKO and DMONSTER, I am in the process of moving my frames to my friend's shophouse - you can come and look at it there if you like in the next 2 weeks. I have about 11 vintage (mostly Italian) frames to put up for release to make space. All in pristine condition. Mostly hand-picked and carried home from Europe as well. I have more than 1 Moser, and Basso, Ciocc Conti etc. Thanks for the reply and I will be in touch soon..
Hi gang - my personal collection is finally up on my partner's website - www.dashsmith.com and there will be 10% off all bike frame sets (only for CVC members) if there is anything you are interested in - pls send me a PM and I will give you the promo code for the items.
Let me know if you like anything.
Thanks again, HRH
