Malvor Bottecchia Pro Cycling Team (Italy) - 1983

A classy but relatively small pro team with just 13 members, including top Aussie rider in Greg Clifton (see above picture). The team history covered 1978-1990. Malvor was cosmetics, Hoonved was washing machines, bikes were Bottecchia, groupsets Campagnolo, clothing was Castelli - all very very Italian.

Team members included Greg Clifton (Aus), Mario Beccia, Bevilacqua brothers, Daniel Gisiger & Robert Dill Bundi. The 1983 team had 7 victories at GP de Nations and stages at Tour de Suisse, Romandie and the Giro.
