May '06

Setavento's top rated MTB Review > has garnered more kudos, this time in Bike Magic's review. "The stiff yet forgiving frame made it a blast through the woods. The frame had that desirable titanium feel, solid with a hint of spring. Through fast narrow singletrack, it had a fingertippy feel - it didn't need coercing, just gently nudging in the desired direction and it complied without complaint... We loved riding the Setavento." 5/5 Performance.

Setavento MTB Review > The November issue of WhatMountainbike gives Setavento's custom titanium mountain bike frame a top rating. "Overall honours have to go to Setavento...It's tight enough to be obedient over technical terrain, but springy enough to differentiate from a decent alloy frame... a full custom build programme for less than the price of any of the "off the peg" frames here."

"Setavento's individually built bikes are well worth the wait in our book."

The difference is that it's £550 and custom geometry is included in the price!". We'll let you know when MBR's review is due out...  
March ‘05
  Cycling Plus > Setavento has earned a mention in the News section of the March edition of Cycling Plus magazine (page 8 if you're looking).
