More Info:
On the way to the final outcome of the model, there were a very few prototypes which lacked the internally routed waterproof brake cable. As far as we have been told by Mr. Aldo Gios, at the time when the professional Clement team had to be presented to the press, they were still waiting the special rubber seals to be delivered. Just as the pictured bicycle with Roger De Vlaeminck from 1983, this exemplar of Gios Torino Professional was built without the internally routed rear brake cable, which was eventually added in late 1983.
