Serotta Ottrott |
2004 Serotta Fierte |
Description |
In October of 2018 I was getting ready to upgrade Dana's gravel bike to her preferred eTap groupset when I realized that it really was not a good fit for her. The top tube was too long and the front end was too short. So I found a deal on this frame that fits her much better and still takes the same wheels and post mount brakes that I had for her. |
Since Dana had a strong preference for her Ottrott over her other bikes, I thought it was time to upgrade at least one of them to the same level.
Bought this frameset on eBay in January 2015.
It was brand new, with manufacturer's warranty.
The geometry works really well for her body, and I have high hopes that it will be both very comfortable and perform well.

Picked this frame up used on the Paceline forum in July 2013. We had been fans of Serotta bikes for some time, and the Ottrott was known to have the most refined ride of any Serotta. I don't know much about the frame's history, but it is in good shape and the critical parts of the frame are titanium which should be very durable. |
Purchased from City Cycles in San Francisco from Clay Mankin.
We went into the process unsure if we were looking for a custom frame or a stock frame.
Dana went through the entire fit process with Clay, rode several bikes, and it was decided that the only acceptable options were to go custom or to get a Serotta with the unique 52S geometry.
Even with the Serotta geometry, we needed to uses some specific components to make the fit work, but it was a lot cheaper than a custom frame.
Sadly, Clay passed away about a year later, and City Cycles disappeared a couple years after that, so we are glad Dana got her session with him.
He was an exceptionally talented fitter, and was wonderful to work with.
