My 2017 Della Santa




I don't follow the vintage market, especially in regards to the financial value of provenance associated with famous riders. But I think that the $40K price for the eBay Della Santa built for Greg Lemond is highly optimistic.

I had the pictured Della Santa made for me by RDS in 2017. The frame set cost $2K, delivered. The color is Electric Blue from the BMW-Mini. (The color looks lighter in person.)

Roland met all of my specifications without exception. The bike fits and rides as expected.

I can see in the various details of construction that Roland really knew what he was doing. The brazing is especially clean, with good fill at all edges and with no gaps.
