The Chesini X Uno features an engraved badge into headtube. Pictured is the opera-house, the Chesini "C" & "X Uno" all carved by hand in the head tube and lovingly hand painted. You can see some of the letters are slightly crooked - a nice bit of evidence of handcrafting work rather than precise machinework. |
