Despite similar weights and technical values, each at the highest level, both models are visually and technically very different. Unidirectional carbon fibres give Pasculli a matt black finish reminiscent of Cervélo. The riding position is not as radically sporty as Corratec's, the steering behaviour is more balanced. The hard carbon saddle and the thick seat post offer comparatively little suspension. In practice, the bike impresses with its precise handling and smooth ride. The tube-to-tube design also allows for other geometries and even lighter frames.
CONCLUSION Prussian-Italian co-production. Technically impressive, customisable, very expensive
