Thinking about that question makes me realize that I had never heard of Mondonico until the last 10 years. Obviously they have been around for a while, as see in Torelli's web site, but all through the early 1970s until maybe mid 1990s I never saw or heard of one. Maybe (most likely) they were not exported to the USA? ...But still, none under teams or in the Euro and Italian magazines I used to scour over and over again... Odd.. anyone else have a distinct 1970s memory of that Marque's presence?
