Another new project

[davidphilips]

Another project, just delivered a few minutes ago bought from ebay a de rosa frame, nice looking alloy frame intend to build up with old dura ace groupset.

Was intending to put of until winter or wet weather but may just get stuck in and build/use it, any one have a similar frame?

Thanks briggs682 @ rooster 1 , just having a look at it , to me it seems a nice frame and i should have most parts to have it on the road soon, only thing i may end up buying is a bottom bracket i have a few spares but this seems to have an italian bb, even have a seat post and downtube stops.

you can always use a threadless bottom bracket

Just had the De Rosa out for maiden voyage seems great, built up with some spares and bits/frame from ebay total cost approximately £300.

Have to say its great fun building a bike and perhaps ending up with a bike that looks and goes great for very little money compared to a new bike (or even some used bikes).
Would not like to have to pay for a new bike with dura ace groupset, any way have fun everyone and safe cycling.
