Technology & Innovation

Pedroni Race designs and builds frames and bikes for the Gravity sector (Downhill, Enduro and E-enduro). The frames are, without compromise, hand-made in Italy, entirely built in house.

 

Production is organised with a clean room for lamination and a temperature-controlled room for cutting operations. Separately, there is a mechanical workshop with a numerically controlled machining centre (CNC) for making moulds and structural parts of the bike frame. There is also a section dedicated to trimming, welding and baking, either by oven or autoclave.

The frame and bicycle designs are entirely the result of Michele Pedroni's 20 years of experience.

The moulds are made by a numerically controlled machining centre (CNC), and can be either made in carbon fibre or aluminium.

Laminating remains the beating heart of Pedroni Race. The pre-preg fibres are cut and prepared by the cutting plotter and then laid out in a precise order by the operator during the lamination process, after which they are processed in an autoclave. At this point the frame is extracted and finished for the last step, which is painting.

Sherin Kelaart, our Composites Workshop Manager, manages the entire lamination process and with her long experience of carbon in the luxury automotive sector, she is able to produce a wide variety of products for sectors such as aeronautics, marine and automotive.
