Dario honed his skills alongside master framebuilder Luigino Milani in the 1980s, crafting bespoke bicycle frames for top professional racers of the era. 

In 1990, fueled by a desire for creative exploration, Dario embarked on his own journey, pioneering a distinctive style that blended art, music, and cutting-edge techniques. With a team of skilled artisans by his side, he brought his visionary designs to life. Over the years, accolades poured in, and frames rolled out of the workshop, all under the watchful eye of Jack, the beloved workshop dog, who maintained a steadfast presence amidst the creative hustle. 

Following Dario's passing in 2018, his legacy lives on in the "Bottega," where his ethos continues to inspire. Today, the workshop remains a sanctuary for those seeking meticulously crafted products that embody precision, quality, and timeless elegance.
