Initially there was no "official" importer, so bikes were independently imported from Europe. That means early records are sparse. Mine was brought in by Moto Cinelli.
October registration probably puts yours into the first production run with the yellow rear suspension hoop. The '94 bikes production began towards the end of '93 after the bike show [Koln?], though initially the only change I've found is that the suspension hoop was painted bronze to match the frame rather than yellow. |
I believe mine may have had the bronze hoop originally but I am yellow now as I like the yellow better. I almost bought a spare the other day but resisted.
