Garelli's single-cylinder 125 racer featured various alternative suspension and braking arrangements during the course of its development and '002' incorporates an un-braced swinging arm, 'upside-down' front fork and single Brembo front disc brake with 4-piston calliper (a braced swinging arm, 'right-way-up' fork and twin discs were tried also)
This Garelli was ridden by American Allan Scott, who scored Garelli's final World Championship point courtesy of his 15th place at the Salzburgring, Austria in June of that year.
