Italian Aluminum/ Carbon Carrera
I picked this up last winter for an extremely reasonable price, the pictures were so bad I didn't know what I was going to see. When I got to his house he dug out a Carrera Hercules RC with full Campagnolo Chorus 10sp gruppo. The bike is not super old but it's dated and a classic now.
I pulled out the bike yesterday and snapped some photos. It's really nice, but I can't seem to find any real info on BF, and everything on the web is in italian. Does anyone know what this is? It appears to be higher end.

Carrera-Podium is a quality builder. I have a steel frame from the mid 90’s that is fantastic. My guess is yours is from the late 90’s.
