Visiting and shopping at the new Jacopo Volpe's (photo up) workshop, Dodici cicli, at 12 Via Pietrasanta in Milan,just opened in October last year (photo middle). The location is beautiful, too bad we arrived in the evening with the darkness. These are the commercial and industrial general stores of the old Milan, restored into modern loft. It reminded me of the Truman Brewery where the guys from 14bikeco have settled in London. I think I have met and talked with Davide Marco Ferrari (photo bottom), but am not sure, we have not introduced ouselves, very friendly and kind person, generous with helpful advice and explanations. There was also Jacopo's sister, Lavinia, whom I met outside EICMA in Milan last September, with some of their bikes on display. Obviously I bought two wheels, for now ... but I hope that the relation will continue. Wonderful frames, nice omponents, excellent rims. Very good guys and congratulations for the new location.
