21 years old now this De Rosa. Bought it cheap to source parts from. Too small, too modern and too much not steel - for "normal" me. When I had picked the parts I wanted I realized I sort of liked the frame. Put on other parts and did the dubious deed... I got a longer stem and turned it upside down to get the bars in position and now it has the same fit as my other bikes.
The stem looks ugly, but hey - I believe all a-headset stems are ugly. It could not get worse so to say...
