CLAS Cajastur Cycling Team (Spain) - 1988-93
Not a team that jumps out at you despite six years in the pro peloton. CLAS was a home improvement company and Cajastur was banking & financial services (anything with Caja in spanish suggests a bank or credit union). Bikes were Razesa (?) and more notably Colnago. Colnago being forever the innovator developed the “Twin downtube” frameset (see picture below). The best thing you can say about the jersey design was it was a lovely Colnago. Groupsets were either Mavic or Campagnolo.
From a team rider perspective it would be cruel to suggest it was all about Tony Rominger but … it was. Rominger won the Tour of Spain in 1992 & 93, and Abraham Olano rode for the team (Olano subsequently won a World Professional Road Championship under Mapei sponsorship). Beyond Rominger & Olano it was a blank canvas and the only time you saw Rominger with a team mate was on the start line.
