Here is my Denti Road Tech Five, I've never seen another one and know nothing of the bike really other than Mino Denti was an ex-professional racer and I think it was made in the 80's. It has crimped or teardrop shaped main tubes. I know Denti are still making bikes but I think they have changed owners, I did send an email to Denti in Italy and the USA to try and find out more about the frame but did not get a reply. If anyone knows more I'd be grateful for any information on when the frame was made and in what numbers, was this model of frame ever raced and if so who rode a Denti and in what races.
I decided I wanted a classic steel frame for comfort but with modern parts hence the set up, I do still have the chrome forks with Denti's ladybird logos if I ever feel like building it up period correct but for now I'm loving the modern kit with retro comfort. Saddle will be changed to a Concor as I prefer it to the Rolls thats on it in the photo.
The purists will hate the cane creek headset and thomson stem as not being Itlaian and the angle of the stem does mildly offend me aesthetically but it is set up as a long distance ride so comfort was the priority not looks.
