They are still in business, having started in 1916. They are a brisk walk from the Via Veneto, not far from the US Embassy. I stopped in. Nice shop, small, packed to the gills, lots of high end modern bikes. Even before the Lira to Euro conversion they were expensive. Today, in dollars it must be outtasight. If I recall they had some nice lugged frames hanging from the ceiling. Many shops slap their names on bikes they don't make. You can ask them: info@ciclilazzaretti.it. Angel Garcia Long Valley, NJ
