After having looked at the lovely Bimota DB7 Nerocarbonio at Milan’s Design Week, on display was also a Nerocarbonio Vespa in carbon fibre. The vintage Vespa GS has been completely restored with carbon, which you can see in the photo below.

This Vespa is a truly special model, with the classic Vespa beauty dressed up with the modern and futuristic clothes of carbon fibre.

We are completely enchanted, and given the success, it looks as though the model will have a limited production of about ten units. The carbon fibre Vespa pic is after the jump.

In this photo is the lovely Bimota DB7 Nerocarbonio built in only 50 examples and on display at the Design Week in Milan. It’s on show as part of the Nerocarbonio event that showcases examples of industrial and artistic design using carbon.

The objects on display have been created by the Architettura and Industrial Design division of Alberto Del Biondi, Industria del Design.

Bimota showed this extraordinary example of the use of carbon fibre in the motorcycle world. What do you think of it?

The Teatro del Design week will take place in Milan and will host the Nerocarbonio event as part of the Design Week. The event will show exclusive carbon objects from Alberto Del Biondi, Industria del Design.

The Nerocarbonio project was created in collaboration with Del Biondi’s design centre and the ORIA company, that works on carbon parts for the aeronautical, shipping and motorcycle industries.

ORIA decided to put its know-how together with the creativity and look from Alberto Del Biondi Industria del Design, to create more versatile and international projects. The carbon fibre components created from the Nerocarbonio project show both creative style and industrial work.

The event includes examples of the innovative use of carbon, not just on F1 models and space shuttle parts, but also as a new way of looking at the material and its style. Representing the motorcycle industry will be Bimota presenting its DB7 Nerocarbonio supersports model, built in just 50 examples.
