Ciao fellow Grisosti, - no, my profile pic does not show me - sorry to dissapoint you... ...she is how I see my GRiSO - she who flies like an eagle!
...got a question: a California-rider ran into the rear of my GRiSO and damaged my brandnew Agostini HF and my rear wheel. I found two different versions of the rear wheel, but which supposed to look the same: BREMBO and ZCV. The ZCV are about 250€ more expensive - my original wheels were BREMBO - also my front wheel...
Can anybody here explain me the difference between ZCV and BREMBO wheels? (even my RADICAL-garage could't explain that to me) - and, if it is advisable to have the ZCV as rear wheel, while the front wheel reamins BREMBO?
Grazie for your support...

As far as I know they are simply the same design from different manufacturers. My guess it was simply a decision made by the factory based on price. A rear wheel off any CARC model with alloy wheels will work, Breva, GRiSO, Sport, Norge, they're all basically the same wheel, just different colours.

Marchesini is owned by Brembo - just a stamp/sticker job

Not sure about that headlight. Is that off a 1200 Sport?

Hello, how can a California be faster than a GRiSO?

Ahh! Sorry, I completely missed the point. As I've said before I'm a terribly boring literalist, if you want to make a subtle point to me the best way to do so is hammer it in through my ear with a one inch brass punch and a four pound hammer......
