Ciocc, at least for the time being, is finished for the time being. I've writtren in more detail about it in my blog but here is the essence of the situation as based upon a reply from Pelizzoli (founder/framebuilder of Ciocc): "The Ciöcc brand is not within our competence, we sold it a long time ago. You are right about bankruptcy about the last owners. Unfortunately bad business for them, maybe for wrong choices of the past.
We are not happy, Ciöcc is our creation, it is sad to see what has happened.....maybe one day Ciöcc could come back to its first home.
We hope."
Beautiful steel frames are now being built under the Pelizzoli name. You can
