The racing bike in the spotlight this time is a Carrera One with Columbus Gara tubing that dates from the 1990s. The bike is still completely original, including the handlebar tape so typical for that time.
The Carrera is equipped with a full Shimano 105SC group 7speed that was introduced in 1990. This group with silver colored components replaced the polished version. So no Campagnolo on this bike, as was normal for an Italian racing bike at the time.
The frame is constructed with Columbus Gara tubes with engravings and also has a competition eye. The purple-grey color is also typical for the 90s. The chromed front fork also contains pantos.
Carrera is a brand that has not been around for very long and especially made a furore in the 90s with the team Carrera Vagabond and Carrera Tassoni, which included climbers Marco Pantani and Claudio Chiapucci, the Tour de France winner of 1987 Stephen Roche and the sprint bomb Guido Bontempi. More information about the Carrera brand can be found in the article The history of Carrera bicycles.
