I'm finding that Carrera Podium are not responding to my emails asking about their history...
http://www.carrera-podium.it/
Doesn't give me a lot of confidence in their current operations....
But maybe they just busy. Or do not understand English: ( -
Tell us something about it then: )
Nice looking machine. Similar angles to mine! -
What's the tubing?
Thron?
Nice looking machine: ) -
Wow! That is a very cool, neat machine: )
Well done you!Interesting to compare, because yours looks to be of similar vintage to mine.
Without the later 90s, too flashy for me, multi-coloured paintwork that became fashionable a little later in the 90s. I've had a couple of similar period Simoncinis that had 'over the top' paint jobs...Do you know what year yours is? Frame tubing?
I've spent many hours online trying to find another similar to mine, with little success as yet!
I know these Carreras are few & far between in UK, so I knew it was a long shot posting here. I've posted on Bikeforums in USA, & others, with very little results.Do show us some more pics & info about yours please.
I got lots to show about mine, & as you say, there should be a dedicated thread on here.We could keep this thread going I'm sure: )
Carreras are proper Italian exotics IMHO. Just not known enough. Yet!
Mine has these amazing, almost shoulderless Unicrown forks that really please my eye.
Check it here:http://bicyclz.com/carrera-podium/
I do not think they are original, but they are so pleasing to me.Yours looks to have the Carrera One headbadge too: )

Hurray! It does work partially: ) But not in my own account name...: )
So now I can add some details.This machine was bought as a frame/forks & built up as shown here with available components.
A lovely rider it turns out, with tight clearances & steep angles. Weighing 21.4lbs as seen above.Carrera Podium really deserves a dedicated thread on here: )
These machines are almost unknown in UK because they are not actively marketed here. (Halfrauds own the name in UK)
Let's see more.

& mine: )
1992ish Carrera Podium. Coloumbus Genius frame.
I'm not convinced that my pics are visible, because no preview on here with this system.
Post it & see, it seems....Still, you can click on it, here on my site: http://bicyclz.com/carrera-podium/
I'm not convinced this will work either, until I upload it to see.
Mods get a grip. -
Would've shown mine but something not working on the site so I cannot upload pics.....
Tasteful & beautiful: )
