1984 De Rosa Professional - $1500
Price Reduced $1250 OBO. I am ready to part ways with this De Rosa. It's a great bike but just a little too small for me. The paint and decals are original. I believe the groupset is also original. I did replace the wheels with period correct Mavic GP4 tubulars. The bike is a 55cm (seat tube) x 55cm (top tube). PM me for for more information if you're interested in buying the bike. Thanks, Mark

Beautiful bike. That color is the same as mine and is somewhat rare. I believe mine is an '86.

Tempting. But too small for even a force fit. Still, those rims! (I've almost bought UO-8s for the Mafac RACERS. So what's a De Rosa for some sweet GP-4s.)

I'm in Austin, TX. If anyone is interested in this bike, PM me. Having it go to someone that is passionate about these bikes is more important to me than a couple hundred bucks. I have to remember to never put the price in the heading! I have reduced the price, but can not change the heading. 
Just trying to thin the herd. I think I'm well over the N-1 number where you know, N= the number of bikes you own that will cause marriage problems.
