Pirelli Zero, the Milanese company\u2019s Industrial Design project with its brand new Pirelli flagship store in Corso Venezia, is just as much of a cult.

the record-winning two-wheeler was created by Alessandro Colombo, a well known engineer who, in 1956, personally supervised the preparation of the bike which went on to achieve a win a large number of events. In that very same year of 1956, it won the Giro d\u2019Italia ridden by Osvaldo Perfetti, followed by the Milano Taranto with Daminelli. In 1956, Franzosi broke the mile record at Castelfusano. In 1957, in order to compete in the duration records, the Tonale was modified with a special trellis frame and a longer pitch but \u2013 above all \u2013 it was given a special fairing created by the airplane designer and engineer, Nardi. With this version, which makes it unique in the world of racing bikes, it not only beat the 1000 km record at Monza in 1957 but went on to beat the six-hour one too. And it is exactly this \u201crecord-breaking Tonale 175 cc\u201d that can be admired in Pirelli\u2019s flagship store in Milan, an absolute must for all those who are looking for the trendiest sports clothes, sports accessories, exclusive items and the latest equipment bearing this prestigious Italian trademark.<\/p>\n
