Had to get the boots for our vacation

I picked up this “well used “ 96 Avalanche off FB Marketplace last weekend for the grand total of Ten pounds!
Full LX, Mavic 221’s in gold, Ritchey Megabytes…
Should clean up not too bad I think and I’ll use it as a shop/pub hack.

Sorry not a bike but wasn’t sure where to post this…

Picked this up recently for cheap. Can only find it one other photo online, so I think it must be fairly rare.

Can anyone give anymore information on this please? Believe it to be early 90’s.

Unusual fit too. Short and boxy. More like a downhill or BMX jersey.

Cool top. I had one back in 1991 I think. I had a 1991 GT Avalanche and wanted a GT race jersey (blue/yellow split). My dad was a salesman at the time and drove all over the place and dropped by Caratti Imports in Yate, Bristol who were the UK distributers for GT as no shops seem to stock the jersey. Anyway he came home with your top. I wasn't exactly over the moon as I wanted a more traditional fitting lycra top. I do have a photo (blurred) of me wearing it at the start of a race at Margam Park. Never saw many of them around and would have been UK specific due to Caratti being UK based.

Mark Batt wore this exact jersey at the Malvern's during he bunny hop competition. He worked for Caratti (customer services?) and was world bunny hop record holder...

Look at 9min 32secs and you'll see him in your jersey!

I wish I still had mine...
