Details

Introducing a Capponi road bike from 1980, winner of the amateur 1982 Giro D'italia. Marino Capponi once a professional rider, opened a bike shop in the early 70’s and sponsored a fair few bike events in around his native town Trieste. Certainly a rarity of a bike and Eroica ready!
In original condition, have only cleaned and re-greased the headset and replaced the seatpost otherwise in semi mint condition.
