Description
1957 Mondial 250cc Bialbero 4-valve Racing Motorcycle
Engine no. 118
We are advised the 250cc Mondial offered here is a works prototype built in 1957 for the 1958 season by Nerio Biavati (formerly chief mechanic at Mondial) and Dino Gilli. The only one of its kind made, it features a bialbero (twin-cam) 4-valve cylinder head with gear-driven cams, designed by Biavati. This restored machine was formerly part of the Enrico Bernardi Museum collection. No documents.
As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
