CARRERA Gold One Titanio (1995/96) – SOLD

The Carrera-Podium workshop was founded in 1989 by former professional rider and Carrera team manager Davide Boifava together with LucianoBracchi and Francesco Boifava.  The brand was born from the needs of the Carrera Team and its champions Steven Roche, Claudio Chiappucci and Marco Pantani.  The workshop had a unique synergy because the professional team worked from the same building and the team riders were built in product testers.  The Carrera bicycle brand has a rich history of over 500 victories in the most demanding road races in Europe.  Many firsts were achieved at Podium such as the first frame in which aluminum was joined to carbon and the first custom on size carbon frame made in Italy.  They were among the first to build titanium frame for professional racing and the use of ceramical aluminum to improve the comfort of aluminum racing bikes.
