One of the so-called 'N.I.T.' (Not In Tragatsch) little-known makes, the firm founded by Giuseppe Carrù commenced motorcycle production in the late 1940s, its first product being a 175cc two-stroke. A respected sidecar racer, Carrù would go on to develop four-stroke overhead-camshaft racers for both the 250ccc and 500cc categories, one of the later being offered here. He also worked with Mondial and Mi-Val, and was renowned for the qualities of his frames. The history of this machine is unknown. No Documents.
