Ciöcc bagan in the 1970s when ex-racer Giovanni Pelizzoli turned his hand to building high quality frames in Northern Italy. Pelizzoli is considered one of the greatest frame-builders of his generation and many Ciöcc were raced through the 70s and 80s. The top of the range bikes were named after successes in San Cristobel in 1977 and the 1980 Moscow Olympics (the Mockba '80) though there were no doubt many other victories on rebranded Ciöcc frames too as was the norm at the time. Pelizzoli parted company with the brand some time in the 1980s but the company continued building with the knowledge he had imparted to them and they still make bikes (albeit far different ones!) today.
