Officina Battaglin Cortina

“The Cortina represents a bold evolution in frame building, blending a mixed-material approach with Officina Battaglin’s signature oversized lugged construction. The proprietary titanium lugs seamlessly integrate custom-drawn Columbus Hyperion titanium tubes and Italian-forged high-modulus carbon tubes.” – Officina Battaglin Website

“Rather than subjecting the titanium to the high temperatures of traditional welding, every joint is bonded, creating incredibly strong connections while preserving the material’s natural properties. The result is a frame that delivers both the legendary ride quality of titanium and Battaglin’s lugged construction, with the stiffness of carbon exactly where it’s needed most.”
