Fairly Mental French and Italian Bikes

From 1989. I especially like the no seat tube design, as it does away with muck build up behind the seat tube. Of course that leaves more room to splatter the rest of the bike!
I've only seen one of these for real, an ex German professional who rode for the GDR had two of them. A self confessed Colnagoholic, he absolutely wouldn't ride anything else.
