So, how many Benzes don't we give a fuck about?
9/10 Benzes
Factors: Brain-melting Jaguar-blue/Campy-red/Chrome double-sided paint job, smooth yet solid ride quality, custom race geometry, full internal electric cable routing. Check!
Mike's take: Not all oversized carbon bikes need to ride like a brick shithouse. Get all the stiffness and raciness you need, then add comfort, panache and hand-built quality.
For more on Carrera check out www.carrera-podium.it/en/bike-catalogue or watch the beautifully shot Pillar's of Italian Cycling from the 16:25 mark to see a custom built carbon bike in their Italian workshop BY HAND, if that means anything these days.
Oh, and this baby is still on sale due to some strange circumstances, so come learn about the magic of tube to tube carbon bikes by visiting or emailing us today.
After all, owning an Italian ride like this one is so choice.
