SLAVIA versus FESTKA SCALATORE: 120 years of cycling evolution
The SLAVIA has a tall frame with a bottom bracket relatively high above the ground, giving the bike an elevated centre of gravity. As soon as you have a chance ride it, you appreciate its easy handling. However, the sitting position is anything but comfortable. This is primarily due to a short top frame tube and extremely low handlebars. These qualities predestine the SLAVIA for short and intense velodrome rides, rather than long-distance races. In contrast, the FESTKA’s geometry corresponds to current trends in bicycle engineering. It is high-performance while offering a comfortable ride and perfectly dialled handling.
