Make your own Pierobon special for £7800

Italian frame-building magicians Pierobon have turned its previously track-only F042 chassis into a road bike that could cost less than £8000 to build.

The F042 chassis has been around for a few years and has been specifically made to suit the 85bhp, two-valve, air-cooled Ducati motors from the likes of the old Multistrada 1000 and Monster S2R.
