Hello from Spain

Hello all.
This is Ignacio, from Spain. I entered this forum mainly attracted by the restoration content I've seen on it. I've been restoring bicycles for years, but I've recently started my first carbon project, so I will keep you informed!

Hi Ignacio from SoCal. Restoration of carbon bikes should be interesting. I have done several trips to Mallorca and love the cycling there.

The fact is that I still don't know which brand is it. I tried to post pictures, but I need 10 posts before being allowed to post pictures. It looks like a LOOK frame, and is has no brand on it, only CARBON in factory paint.

It has a Shimano 600 groupset on it, so I believe it to be from early 90's.

Hello and welcome! Will you be doing a write up on it? That would be really interesting.

Yes I will. I've been restoring motorcycles for years. Compared with them, the bicycle restorations are too short!

Welcome. The Shimano 600 groupset is one of the overall best of all time.

The bicycle has the serial number engraved on one of the lugs. The number is 59B231H4.

I will use the 600 groupset on another bike, a basque brand called MENDIZ. In this carbon frame I will use the Santé group, which matches aesthetics of the frame.

I will open a thread on Classic & Vintage with pictures of the frame. Thank you all for the replies.
