The Mirellas were made by an Italian manufacturer from
outside the bicycle industry,on a whim.Some of them were
full-on road bikes.The name-plate has a portrait of his
daughter Mirella,with Big Hair.Crop circles again:an
inquisitive friend of mine who recycles bikes learned
the whole story in detail and ran it down to me one day
when one of the LBS took in a high-grade and immaculate
Mirella.
