Founded in the 1950s in Cuneo by Giovanni Tardivo, C.B.T. Italia has evolved from a parts distributor into a manufacturer of exceptional racing frames. Under the leadership of his sons, the brand has distinguished itself through its technical innovations (profiled steel, treated aluminium) and its refined aesthetics. It achieved global recognition in 2002 by winning the Women’s Tour de France. Today, the company remains family-owned and produces high-end road, gravel and electric bikes, all characterised by Italian craftsmanship.
