This book is autographed inside by Amerigo Sartore, the company president at Elite.
I found this on google when I searched out his name.
Elite may not be the best known cycling company, but if you take a closer look you will see that this Italian company may well be the best kept secret in the cycling world.
Elite was founded by Amerigo Sartore toward the end of the 1970?s. He started by designing training rollers and cycle racks for cars. By the 80?s, Elite had expanded the product line to incorporate high tech water bottles. This line included the world’s first leak-proof bottle. Its unique cap was designed to prevent the contents from leaking out, even if it was upside down, or crushed. It was called the Unica and its specially designed cap not only kept the water in, it’s bent top allowed the riders to see the road while refreshing themselves. By the 90?s they continued their water bottle line to include extended thermal qualities that now are up to four hours of thermal insulation, even in the hot sun. While their advancements in water bottle technology are notable, the Elite products we tend to navigate toward are their advanced trainers.
