Cilo Sport 600 Classic Swiss Lugged Tange Steel Road Bike blue/red - Small - VGC Cilo was a Swiss manufacturer of bicycles
founded in 1914 and located on the shores of Lake Geneva in
Romanel-sur-Lausanne in the Vaud canton. The name is an acronym of
Charles Jan Lausanne Oron with the “J” becoming an “I” for French
pronunciation reasons. This classic beauty has survived and the bright
red and blue finish still shines! The elegant lines of the lugged steel
frame and the detailed lug work highlight the creator’s true
craftsmanship. This bike has been freshened up with new cables, new
housing, and new bar tape. It still sports the original stickers of the
Tange 1 steel tubing. The bike is tuned and ready to ride. With a 52.5cm effective top tube and a 51cm seat tube (c-c), this bike should fit most riders in the 5'4" to 5'7" range.
