It is a genuine picture, he tested the bike for the french Moto Verte magazine. A translated copy appeared in TMX if my memory serves.

10kg heavier than other bikes of their day!... they ride Scottish type sections great ... very stable... might be a momentum thing :hyper: ... I should add that they ride Scottish type sections great when the electrics are working.

Oh and if you ride em on reasonable stuff the frames crack on the downtubes

Camozzi rode it well, but he was built like a rugby player!

Jarvis rode it great, but he would have been tonnes better on a Gasser!

The bike had potential, but the design was kept for 2 years and then they turned out the 'Easy' which was a better bike but looked worse!.

I could never believe where camozzi could go with Any bike, he was huge!

On the note of Jarvis, I always thought Jarvis was held back riding scorpas, I think had he been on a more competitive bike, he would have been the man to beat!
