Today I got an other DeRosa. I bought it from a former belgium racer called Stouvenaker. He rode a lot at the times to no wonder the bike got repainted with the years and components replaced by other.

From what I can see if I compare it with these (http://www.43bikes.com/derosa.html) bikes it should be from around 1972. He only could tell me that he bought it in the early 70`s but didn`t remember the exact year.
What do you thing, could that be? It has the 6 cut outs under the BB and heart cutouts everywhere. Fork also looks like the early ones without the heart in the crown.

The interesting thing is that the bike already has cablerouting on the toptube. That is very rare for that period on a DeRosa, or not?
What do you say?
