CICLI CISCATO
Cicli Ciscato, a shop with garage,has been property of Ciscato family for four generations. Started in 1914 by the founder, Giuseppe Ciscato, the shop has managed to fulfil all its customers’ requests over time, going through the ups and downs of a long history, like two World Wars, the Great Depression and two floods hitting the shop in 1966 and again in 2010.
Nevertheless Cicli Ciscato has affirmed its status as a real hot-spot for all cyclists in Vicenza. In its more recent story, the shop has been managed by Giorgio, who took it over from his uncle Dionisio. Giorgio really knows the field, since he started working as bicycle-manufacturer for ”Berga” a very famous brand and continued as specialized technician for the international race department of “Campagnolo”, another well-established company. Giorgio has been managing the shop until the mid-1990s, when his son Giovanni took it over, precisely in 1994: Giovanni still works as shop-manager, with the help of his sister Paola and his son Nicola.
As another object of pride for the shop is to mention what happened in 1973, as Cicli Ciscato fabricated bicycles for the polish national team, using highly innovative frames, “Alan” frames, made of aluminium. The national polish team won the world team - championship the very same year. The shop offers a wide selection of different bicycles, made for different needs: city bikes suitable for everyday life, race bicycles for competitions, off-road bikes, as well as electrical bicycles. Ciscato family is keen on helping all customers with technical support on many different brands, in order to let everyone pedaling safely.
