I can't seem to find any chrome at the front or back?

Looks like about a 49cm to me - but not to worry: This model gets bigger.

(Congrats!)

Thank you everyone! I paid enough to buy two DeRosa's but she is worth every penny to me. She is definitely a keeper. Aside from my Her and wife, nothing else in my life seems very important anymore.

She is pretty small Auchen, 7lbs 3oz and 19inches long. My wife was 5'2" and 110 when she got pregnant... there didn't seem to be a whole lot of room in there.

Eh, it's probably a UO-8 but should definitely be good enough to occupy your time for the next 18 years or so.

Oh yeah, for sure. I had some bike cash on hand but I decided to put it in her bank instead. I have plenty of bike stuff, I don't think I will be actively collecting for a while.

Definitely not French, looks more American, probably from a custom builder. Whatever it is, it is one fine baby. Congrats!
