3200 euros, bit strong

You'd think he'd chuck in some fresh bar tape for that.

you can only guess whos sweat is in it now.

^ how do you shift gears?

Its campagnolo EPS I think

10 speed record levers, with no paddles... With a DA di2 rear mech? I'm guessing he's using the remote switches for di2.

Ugh. That mix of stuff. I feel dirty just thinking about it.

those Colnagos.... so nice. Apart from the last one.

What mechanism is used here as a top headset?

I heard somewhere that the Masi frame no.s can be checked with the Rt Hon Mr Masi in Milan and he has a ledger which says to whom it was sold to originally

Magnets.

All the colnagos are nasty. The unbranded silver lo-pro is very beautiful.

agreed on the snide mapei but certainly not regarding the other two

hmm, I've just always found those carbon lugs really clumsy looking.

I prefer that to mono mould frames ,the c40 b stay and extreme were some of the best carbon roadbikes made, let alone by Colnago, a shop owner I know doesn't rate the new stuff, and doesn't even stock the brand, but bmc, project california cervelo's http://www.cervelo.com/en/bikes/project-california.html[URL="http://www.cervelo.com/en/bikes/project-california.html)and"][/URL] )and the like
also
he said the c50 hp was one of the brands best
(when he saw mine)

The wife's hire bike in Como turned out to be one of these - came very close to putting an offer in for it at the end of the holiday. Ti stem, seatpost, Dura Ace... yes I know it should have had Campag but my god it was nice. Should have gone for it.

Can't help but think that the bars on that De Rosa look awfull..

The drop section has been cut down I think.

Really clean! And nice detailing! Thumbs up!

Oooh lovely. What year is that?

I have the weird intuition that the frame does not deserve the parts... But without close-up pictures, I could be completely wrong... Good looking bike though...

Yeah the frame definitely seems earlier than the shifters, that's why I wonder about the date.
