From Milan to Poland, a bold idea and a TIG-welded steel frame made history. Fifty years later, we celebrate the Stelbel frames that brought Poland to World Championship gold in 1975.<\/p>\n

For Rouleur Live 2025, Stelbel partnered with award-winning graphic designer Matt Willey. His work is highly coveted and forms the visual foundation of the world’s most prestigious publications. Today, we are bringing you on a journey to discover what inspired him for the livery of this very special SB\/04.<\/p>\n

\"Stelbel<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The bike honors the \u201cPolish Connection<\/strong><\/a>\u201d, a historic partnership between Stelio Belletti and the Polish Cycling Federation. In 1975, just two years after founding Stelbel, Belletti produced TIG-welded frames for the Polish team, who went on to win gold at the World Championships team time trial in Belgium by a razor-thin margin of 5.5 seconds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Matt Willey\u2019s livery draws inspiration from the original white-and-red frames, reinterpreting the story in a modern, striking design that bridges Milan, Poland, and Stelbel\u2019s racing heritage.
\nThis collaboration is a tribute to craftsmanship, courage, and fifty years of cycling history, bringing a legendary frame back into the spotlight for a new generation of enthusiasts.<\/p>\n
