Gasparetto

Cicli Gasparetto was a bicycle manufacturer based in Milano, Italy. While it made a wide range of bikes, it seems to have been particularly famous for its high end racing bikes. You occassionally see photos of Gasparetto frames with exceedingly fancy lugwork, elegant colours, pin striping and the whole nine yards.

Gasparetto make it onto this web site because, in the late 1940s they manufactured a rod type derailleur somewhat reminiscent of Campagnolo's rod type designs of the time.
