De Rosa 1957 Replica

Ray from Philadelphia (USA) leaves the following beautiful pictures to me.

35th anniversary bike from 1990s- supposedly the graphics were inspired by the earliest De Rosas

I purchased the bike in 1999 at a cycling pro shop here in the USA , Cycles BiKyle (www.bikyle.com). I am really into lugged steel traditional bicycles (especially De Rosa) and when I saw the frame I had to have it. I am told that the frame was actually built by Ugo himself, and there were a limited amount produced.
