2011 wilier izoard xp "petacchi"

campag veloce groupset
specialized evo romin saddle
richey wcs stem and handlebars
fulcrum racing 5 wheels with rubino pro's

My day to day training / sportive and commute bike - lovely ride and very comfortable.

1998 De Rosa - planet - "Allumino" - Batix - del Monte De Rosa 1998/9 team colours

alluminium 7003 ABT butted tubes by Dedaccia
full campag record group set
mavic open wheels
richey wcs stem and handlbars
pave saddle

Mint condition - pride and joy - summer and dry riding only - stiff and responsive ride

This is a team edition bike however not sure if this was the full spec that was given to the team, the record groupset is fantastic so it might well have been - if anyone knows the history of this team I would be interested to know.

Next project - De Rosa - King - Sky Blue 2014 frameset - campag athena
Sunny Days - De Rosa - King RS Action Azzurro lumina
Rain - Winter - Wilier - xp izoard "petacchi"

    Lovely.

    As others have said, and I have to agree, the De Rosa is beautiful.

    A classic looking bike. Very nice indeed.

    The De Rosa isn't bad either.

    Many thanks for kind comments...agreed the De Rosa is amazing. I always wanted a Art Deco colnago but they were so pricey, you will not believe that I picked up the De Rosa in this condition for half the price of a decent late 90's colnago.
