Super Monza
I came across this hi-tech Lambretta on TikTok where Gary's Super Monza has been dominating my feed with his snappy modern video clips. I was instantly impressed and contacted him to do a feature. Like most of us it seems, his scooter is in a contant state of flux due to new gagets or funky parts that have come into view. Long may it continue. Great scooter Gary. Hope to bump into you soon.
