Rouleur Live typically throws up some interesting bikes for our perusal but perhaps not many that have been more than 25 years in the making. But the stunning AT-01 from Passoni Titanio is just that.
The AT stands for ‘Animus Titanium’. It’s the Italian marque’s new aerodynamic frame that blends titanium and carbon, a reflection of Passoni’s desire to “balance efficiency and emotion”. While this bike is a result of over two years of research and development, the bike’s roots go further back.
Passoni first released the AT back in the 1990s as a titanium model, then again in the early 2000s as a carbon fiber frame internally reinforced with titanium. It was here that the idea of a ‘hybrid architecture’ was born and one that forms the central technical concept of the AT-01. You may like
