Vigorelli Steel Frame Kit
Best steel frameset for competitive fixed-gear criterium racers.
This is the definitive choice for riders who want the classic, lively feel of steel without sacrificing modern performance. By pairing a responsive, double-butted tubeset with a stiff carbon fork, it delivers the precise handling needed for tight criterium corners, though you’ll have to accept a slightly harsher ride than a pure carbon frame.
