Picked up this Rossin this weekend. Nice bike, but without any of the details normally seen on Rossins, like lug windows, pantoing, R cutouts or even chrome.
I have or had several bikes - Tommasini, Viner, and Pinarello which have been identified as sub-contracted frames and was wondering if anybody had info on this for Rossin.
I'm guessing a date of either late 80's or leading to the Rossin sale in 92.
Description:
Serial number 243 58 (58 c-t so that's Italian!)
No ridges in the tubing but does seem to be double butted, No tube decal. It looks like SIX ridges at the bottom of the fork stem.
Campy dropouts front and rear
27.2 Gipiemme seatpost (wonder if it''s the only original component)
Italian thread BB
126, 7 speed spread
Most components are 1991 105, except for the older DA RD
Specialized BB, headset and stem.
Anybody have a handle on this?
