Pinarello Kera-Lite from 1996, this frame set as used by Bjarne Riss and Team Telekom in the 1996 TdF
Campagnolo Race Triple groupset and features an unusual quill seat post.

that was quick !

like the way you kept the speedo ,perfectly standard 90/s im still going to keep m cateye mitty 2 . this bike has that leap on and thrash ! appeal. The handle bar tape sets it apart and blends with the delicate graphics. its refreshing to view something just that little bit different, i wish i had the money to buy it and find a steep hill and attack! but my beloved lemond must come first.

thanks! I spent a good time choosing the tape! I could gone the white Rolls and bar tape, but this really works for me fairly light as well, rolling countryside never needed lower than 40 x 16
