De Rosa Corum with Campagnolo Centaur

Posted on
  • De Rosa Corum, built by Doriano De Rosa in Milan. (Dedacciai EOM 16.5 steel tubing, TIG welded.)

    Seat tube: 58cm
    Top tube: 57cm
    Head tube: 17.3cm

    Campagnolo Centaur 10-speed 53/39 (Veloce rear derailleur) with 172.5mm cranks, in good working order.

    ITM seatpost, Ritchey Classic handlebar, Deda Quattro stem, Selle Italia Flite 1990 saddle, Brooks leather bar tape, Campagnolo Record headset.

    Mavic Aksium wheels with Continental GP4000S (tyres nearing replacement) AND/OR Campagnolo Eurus G3 wheels with Veloflex Open Corsa SC (tyres nearly new).

    Notes

    Rides superbly, very well looked after, and the metallic paint job glows in sunlight. Overall, classic good looks but with a turn of pace and stability of a modern bike. A rare sight.

    The aluminium Campag wheels are unusual - most Eurus wheelsets came in black. I can also supply silver Campagnolo Veloce pedals. They need a bit of oil but are in good condition – £40. I also have a blue Selle San Marco saddle that roughly matches the paint; whoever buys the bike can have it if they want it.

    The upper bottle cage mount on the down tube is losing its thread. You could either replace it, try a larger bolt, or fit the bottle cage and seal the bolt in. It does, however, hold a bottle cage reasonably securely as it is. There are also some stone chips and a little bubbling on the seat tube and underside of the top tube.

    Price

    £700 with Mavic wheels

    £900 with Campagnolo wheels (shown)

  • Cheers. Shame about the size!

  • Shame was hoping for 57 square

    Lovely bike

  • Thanks. I'll be sad to see it go. Quite an aggressive geometry for the frame so you're right to pass it up if it's not just the right size.
