Major was born in Turin in '1948 by a project of Salvatore Maiorca. Design is decades ahead: as you can see every part of the machine is enveloped in the body. The coolest thing is the suspension system, achieved through rubber cylinders between hub and rim.
It remained as a prototype because its production was too much expensive.
That's one hell of a bike, never seen it before, and I really dig it!
