So 7 months later, the De Rosa is back and ready to ride. I've been out a couple of times already and it is nothing short of incredible! Funny that last time I posted there were rumors of the Protos going back into production. Since then, you can now purchase the new one on wiggle for £12k! Haven't seen any yet though I have to say.

anyway, here's some photos:

Thought I'd share my bike with you all. Prompted by the De Rosa "flagship bike" news item... Could the Protos be returning?

Also, don't have the bike in front of me right now to write down stem and bars
