1983 - The pink Panther - Tomasin Special Oro

More and more often, I am interested in those very unknown, small frame builders, who supported the regional cycling scene throughout many years and made the local amateurs to those famous pros that we adore today.

Today my virtual travel lead me to the region of venetia, the province of Padua and the small community of Cadoneghe and Cicli Tomasin founded by Filippo Tomasin

Well this time it was more likely the color that demanded my attention first but with second and third view this frame was originally build by Benotto and looks very similar to their model 3000.
