The Paul Smith Touring bike is based around the Vincitore Special, a traditional unique Mercian model with fancy hand cut spearpoint lug work to the bottom bracket, head tube and fork blades. The spearpoint once again strengthens the bottom bracket area to provide a stiff, yet lively and responsive frame. The frames are built with Reynolds 631 tubing for comfort and durability.
Each frame features unique Paul Smith details, engraved ‘top eye’ with the Paul Smith signature logo highlighted in paint by hand and each tube is a different colour all in the same tonal range. The colours are all hand mixed by the sprayer in the finest quality enamels (and because of this the colours may vary slightly from frame to frame). Each paint colour is mixed, sprayed, then stoved in our stove enamel oven, before being carefully masked ready for the next colour tone to be applied to the next tube. The process is repeated until finally the tubes can be masked leaving the fancy lugwork exposed for the final layer of paint. Once the lug work has been lined skilfully by our framefinisher, the transfers are applied, left to dry for a few days before the final coats of clear lacquer applied to protect the paint and offer a long lasting durable finish.
The components on the tour bikes reflect the glory years of cycling whilst still being the highest quality, up to date kit available today.
