Ambrosio Review

Ambrosio is an Italian bicycle company that has been producing quality bikes and bike components for more than 75 years. The company has been a sponsor to many professional cyclists over the years. There is no distributor of Ambrosio bikes or components in North America, and many riders and industry experts agree that Ambrosio rims are the most sought after and hardest to find bike rims in the industry.

Ambrosio brand bikes are well known among the pro riding circuit. The Italian design and quality craftsmanship is an industry leading choice from triathletes to road racers and long distance cross country riders. Ambrosio offers a full line of complete bike builds that will fulfill any biking need from time trials to world championship races. In addition to complete bikes, Ambrosio carries a full line of performance components and accessories.

The Rapide Carbon by Ambrosio is a very lightweight bike that is suited to a variety of environments and is equally at ease on flat terrain and uphill rides. Since this bike comes in six different sizes, it should be easy to achieve an almost customized fit.

The Celcius Team Edition is arguably one of the lightest bikes in its class on the market today, weighing in at a mere 8.8kg. This bike is ergonomically designed to be more comfortable on the longer rides.

The Solaro by Ambrosio is geared more towards the amateur rider. This bike is considered by Ambrosio to be a budget model for the novice who would like to start road racing. This bike strikes a balance between performance components and budgetary considerations.

Ambrosio’s Guido model is an urban commuter bike that can do double on long distance rides. The frame angles were specifically designed for comfort, while the rims and wheels smooth out the ride.

The Solaro Street and Guido Street models were designed for the green consumer. Design elements of these models include frames and tires that provide a smoother and more comfortable ride on pavement.
