ROSSIN COMPACT CARBON FIBER

This bike appears courtesy of  Éroica Cicli:


One of the very few prototypes ever made, definitely one of the rarest Rossins ever. Probably made in the late 80's. Early carbon fibre construction, performed by gluing together the two fibre shell of the main triangle of the frame. A steel rear triangle is then integrated to the body. Designed for time trials and for 'breaking time records in velodromes', equipped with a pair of 700 and 650 disc wheels and an aero fairing in the front. The stem is directly welded to the fork crown, and the handlebar was made and installed to fit inside the fairing. A nice piece of carbon fibre frame history.
