Passoni Titanio presents the AT-01 Animus Titanium, a new aerodynamic frameset that evolves the brand’s technical vision while remaining true to its identity.
The project is the result of over two years of study and development, combining the unmistakable soul of titanium with contemporary aerodynamic performance.
Each material is used precisely where it performs best, joined in a seamless structure that reflects Passoni’s pursuit of balance between efficiency and emotion.

The name Animus Titanium has deep roots in Passoni’s history. It appeared on two of the brand’s most distinctive models from the 1990s and early 2000s: one in pure titanium, the other in carbon fibre but internally reinforced with titanium to reproduce the unique riding sensation of a titanium frame. That same idea, preserving the soul of titanium even through innovation, is at the core of the new AT-01. The initials "AT" stand for Animus Titanium, expressing both continuity with the past and a clear technical statement.
The AT-01 Animus Titanium is handmade and 100% built in Italy. Every frame is crafted to order in Passoni’s atelier near Milan, where precision, material expertise and attention to detail define each step of production.

The AT-01 Animus Titanium introduces a hybrid architecture: a titanium lower triangle ensures power transfer, stability and comfort, while a monocoque carbon upper triangle enables aerodynamic shaping and weight reduction. Each material is used precisely where it performs best, joined in a seamless structure that reflects Passoni’s pursuit of balance between efficiency and emotion.

Aero Efficiency: The frame’s refined tube profiles and integrated carbon cockpit reduce aerodynamic drag while maintaining the natural smoothness and quiet power delivery typical of titanium.
Engineering Precision: Titanium components such as the head tube, bottom bracket shell and dropouts are CNC-machined and 3D-printed for structural accuracy. The T47 bottom bracket and 1”½ headset improve stiffness and long-term reliability.
Ride Quality: The AT-01 features an entirely new generation of titanium tubes, designed specifically for this model to deliver a more reactive yet composed ride. The combination of titanium and carbon ensures a balance between efficiency, control and comfort that defines the character of the bike.
Integration: Full internal cable routing and compatibility with modern electronic and wireless drivetrains result in a clean, functional design.
