Bra | Bicycle Museum

Bicycle Museum In the premises of the company Bra Servizi, it is possible to admire a vast collection of bicycles generously donated by athletes and private individuals, even from distant times, such as the one of the bersagliere of 1900, and the racing one of 1935 with the first Campagnolo rear rod gear, also used by Gino Bartali and Fausto Coppi. Also on display are the jerseys of the cycling companies, the former professionals of the province of Cuneo, including Matteo Cravero from Bracciano and some professionals still in business, including Marco Osella and Miculà Dematteis. A particular place deserves the pink jersey with which Marco Pantani won the 1998 Giro d’Italia, the Bianchi jersey worn by the Champion Fausto Coppi after the war, the jersey of the National professional team of 1996 and the jersey of the society of Turin dedicated to Serse Coppi, Fausto’s brother. Also on display are the rainbow jerseys of Giuseppe Saronni, Stefan Roche, Gianni Bugno and Mario Cipollini accompanied by newspaper articles and photos of the time dedicated to the pedal champions who wore them.
