When it comes to frame materials, nothing can match the history or aura of steel. To this day, steel remains one of the best riding materials around, creating a frame you'd swear is not only alive, but reading your mind. Light, stiff, lively, resilient: a steel frame is one that leaves you smiling and ready for more. It's hard to out-perform steel when it comes to value, and DeSalvo Cycles steel frames are the result of the best marriage of workmanship and material to be found, at a price that leaves the same impression as the ride.

DeSalvo Steel Frames
At DeSalvo Cycles we build our steel frames from only the finest tube sets available from Columbus and True Temper. Each tube set is chosen to give you the best possible ride for the given application. Some of our frames utilize a mix of tubing where we've found it beneficial to enhance the ride qualities of the frame.

The dropouts and braze-ons found on DeSalvo Cycles frames are also only the best available. For dropouts we choose from Ritchey or Breezer on our multi-speed bikes and Paul or Sub 11 for the single speeds. Our cantilever bosses are the three-piece style from Paragon Machine Works.
