Mario and Company have completely redesigned the BOND, We used to tell our clientele that the BOND is what we call the “OLD MAN’S” bike much like the Colnago C64, and the Cervelo S3. Please don’t be misconstrued by this term, as we do not mean it in a derogatory way whatsoever! What we are saying is it is a bike that you can ride all day without any aches or pains. All the bikes mentioned above are wonderful riding bikes, but we normally sell and build Lamborghini Aventadors and the bikes previously mentioned are more like a Bentley or Maycach’s. So, having said all that, the New Cipollini BOND II is analogous to the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera. Aggressive, yet beautiful, lightweight, yet powerfully rigid. A commandingly stable feel, and comfortable enough to do a double century be totally fine post-ride. With the step down lower mounted seat stays the redesigned stouter fork and down-tube, the bike has a completely new look as well, at first glance you may confuse the BOND II with its older sibling the NK1K, but one look at the seat-stays you will recognize the new bike!
