Well a mystery to me at least…
I'm trying to buy this bike locally. The buyer sent pics and I am unable to id the model of this De Rosa. I have never sen one with these features:
-aero down tube shifter mounts
-very odd seat clamping mechanism
-no seat stay panel pantographing on the rounded upper seat stays
-oversized tubing
-what looks like reverse lugs (lugs integrated onto ends of top and down tube as opposed to traditional cluster lugs)
-standard BB lug
Any ideas? I've yet to see it in person but the pics show what looks like a Trophy Super Prestige logo. Is this possible? There is a Columbus decal on the frame but I cannot detect what tube set is denoted on it (my guess is EL or EL OS due to the size of the tubes).
thanks
