Modern but classic steel DE ROSA frameset

[slimjoe]

I know its a modern frameset but thought id see if anyone on here would

be interested before it goes on E-bay.

It is a 55cm 2005 DE ROSA CORUM made from Dedaccia EOM 16.5 steel tubes.

Ive had Litespeeds and other nice road frames but this is the best

handling and most beautiful frame ive had the pleasure of riding.

Im having a frame made for me at the mo and i cannot justify holding onto this

It has a couple of small stone chips in the paint and some marks were the fitted raceblades rubbed. Ive covered them with some tastefull stickers.

Mizuno carbon fork 1 1/8 and a Campag Record h-set are included.

I payed £1,150.00 for this and im looking for £500 for it posted. Paypal accepted or a personal cheque.

Does it measure 55 square?

geometry

The top tube measures 55cm too with a seat angle of 73.5.

It does seem to measure 55cm square but it seemed to be more like a 56cm frame to me.

Im 5- 11" and with a 120mm stem and seat in a standard position it fitted perfect.

weight

I forgot to mention the frame weighs 1680g

seatpost size is 29.4 but im including a shim to downsize to 27.2

front mech clamp is 31.8 and its a 1 1/8 headset

Thanks Mike,

It is a stunning frameset and it kind of sucks to sell it but i can only justify 1 road bike

It took 6 months to arrive after i actually ordered it..Quite rare frameset

Don't sell it yet. You might regret it!
