Vitali Columbus Gara

A former Gastown speed demon, imported to far more serene pastures. It may have been born in the halls of La Bicicletta under the loving hands of Giuseppe Cramerotti. It might have been sentenced to hard time in Victoria, before returning to Granville Street with a clean slate. The bike is a size 48, and was originally fitted with an eight-speed Shimano RSX groupset. It is now fitted with a combination of eight-speed Campagnolo parts - mostly Veloce.
