Fondriest Molven?

[Michael Clark]

Hi, looking at buying a Fondriest Molven to replace my Cube Peloton but can't seem to find out much about it on Google. Could you help please
Thanks
Mike

Lovely slice of Italian retro beauty. Aluminium frame, carbon forks, usually to be seen with a Campagnolo groupset.

Buy it. Or send me a link so I can.

Bought it! Thanks for your reply. Do you know the approx. age of that model? Got to get rid of the Cube Peloton now....Always wanted an Italian bike with Campag groupset but was given the Cube (first bike) from a good friend who has back problems. Thanks once again, Mike

It will be at least 10 years old, as I'm fairly certain Fondriest started making all carbon fibre bikes in 2003.

The man himself might be able to give you a bit more info - his e-mail address is listed on the manufacturer site as maurizio.fondriest@fondriestbici.com

Brilliant, many thanks, Mike

Might be interested in your Cube, but depends on size, price etc.

Hi DooDah
Its a 62 cms frame. My first bike (I was clueless about frame size etc.) Didn't do my homework as a friend of mine had it and said I could take it off his hands, THEN i got into cycling so now know about frame size...I'm 6ft and it feels alright to me. The Fondriest Molven feels about the same but also feels quicker than the Cube. I upgraded the seat to a Ritchey Comp Streem V2 saddle in white, Deda RS01 6061 alloy seat post, Deda Elementi Rhm 02 white Bar at 44 cms and white Elementi bar tape
