This turned up at Eastern Friday. Despite it's Italian name all the parts are German/Austrian fabricates so I'm quite sure that was not made in Italy. But really a great fun,earlier I've never ridden a bike like this. Heavy and robust and yet not rigid! The cornering needs a little...

The snow disappeared in one night -although the were plenty- it was unbelievably sunny and mild outside,so I had to make some photos... Let me show you my wife's city bike from 1995: a swiss made Sursee Tigra. It is in regular use since then,so wears minor scratches,but is in perfect technical...
