AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

C4 Marte.

The brainchild of Marco Bonfanti, the first full monocoque mountain bike produced in larger numbers (approximately 150 pieces).

Original brochure is enclosed.

Has been built once and ridden a couple of times; must be considered as New Old Stock with storage signs.

This particular frame set with wheels was exhibited at the Milan bike fair in 1994.

The FIR wheels are an astonishing piece of art; only three sets exist, this one with a ceramic brake surface, the only one with this feature. Especially made with a wider rim to accommodate 2.35 tires and in a 26” size.

M730 New In Box brake levers come with the package.

Frame plus wheels and levers will be wrapped and packed thoroughly and shipped through GLS or UPS.

If the buyer wishes full insurance included, shipping costs will have to be arranged with me directly.

All items are shipped from Copenhagen.
