Cyndarella Isotonic Pro Cycling Team (Swiss) - 1988

Very much a second tier team with a very small list of victories (stage wins at Tour de Swiss and Giro), sitting on fashionable LOOK bikes with Shimano groupsets. Isotonic is a sports drink and the clothing was provided by Assos.

Results were restricted to the Tours of Switzerland & Romandie and Beat Breu went 11th in the Giro in 1988 (the Giro year over the Gavia Pass in the snow). Other team notables were Gisiger, Jarmann, Fuchs & Stutz. The team photos below have crates of fruit in the photo … maybe a clue as to the Cyndarella origins.
