Custom Columbus XCR Tubing and Engineered Vertical Compliance The mechanical excellence of the Responsorium lies in its proprietary, custom-drawn Columbus XCR stainless steel tubing. By precision-engineering the internal wall thickness and butting profiles, and pairing them with Pegoretti’s signature hooded dropouts and 16 mm cylindrical non-tapering seat stays, the frame achieves exceptional vertical compliance. This structural design actively dampens harsh road buzz while maintaining maximum lateral stiffness. The result is an incredibly responsive, comfortable ride that transfers power instantaneously to the drivetrain without penalizing your body over elite distances.

Disc or Rim Brake Configurations with Bespoke Hand-Painted Finishes Designed to accommodate both classic traditions and modern technology, the Responsorium is available in both disc brake and traditional rim brake configurations. Reflecting the brand's legendary artistic heritage, riders can personalize their frame with multiple iconic paint schemes, including Solid, Graphics, Panel, and the world-renowned Ciavete—a completely freehand, one-of-a-kind abstract artwork unique to each individual frame.
