Where appropriate new original spare parts have been used (the list is very extensive and very long). A number of parts were machined from new, using the latest CNC technology and the best available materials. Carbon Fiber products have been produced by a person who has 25 years of experience in the field and uses only the best available materials and resins. The moulds created to produce the carbon parts are available and can be sent to any destination. It is important to know that these moulds were created based on – original – Michelotto pieces and using the exact same materials used by Michelotto.
