Bike identity help

Hey guys,

Need some clue on this frame.

No identity on the bottom bracket, drop-outs
It is an Italian bb

Some good campy stuff in there.

Mind to help out?

Cheers.

[MENTION=192351]littlebeetle[/MENTION] You have what appears to be a very nice little De Rosa from sometime in the early 80's.

The Dura Ace AX rear derailleur is from the early 80's but the rest of the Campagnolo components may have date codes stamped into them that would indicate the year.

I couldn't quickly locate a catalog image with your specific model, but any authentic De Rosa is a bike worth holding onto.

The "T" pantograph on the chainring probably means something...but the experts will be along shortly.

Looks like a great bike that will clean up very nicely.

@billytwosheds Thanks so much for your inputs.

I am quite doubt the frame is from De Rosa as I did a quick research, some of the identical de rosa frame is not found on this bike.
First, I thought it might be a Japanese frame, but then i found out that the BB is Italian. I guess back then only the Italian builder would stick on with Italian BB, not others?

Where could I locate the date code on the campy parts?

The crankset is ofmega c/w torpado chainring

P/S: The De Rosa decals are on the frame surface.

BR.

I'm seeing this all the time lately. Someone references a photo but there's no photo. Is BF on the wonk again?

There's no paperclip icon showing the thread has attachments, either, when viewing the thread title on the main page.

I used to be able to upload with attachment however, it is no longer work now.
What happen is when I click on the image icon, it pops up a line requesting "URL".

This is why I am showing photos I uploaded to my google account.

* Could someone out there help to verify if the photos is visible now, or else I need to seek for admin assistance.

Cheers.

No photos are showing for me. Sorry.

There is a sub forum for asking about problems, its near the bottom of the opening page. https://www.bikeforums.net/forum-sugg...er-assistance/

Post your problem with the images not showing there. Or, there might already be some posts about this, its a common problem right now.

Thanks Bill,

Will definitely do that.

I read some post with similar issue faced by other members.
Some replies says manage attachment. Technically, is to remove old photos that you posted.

Well, if I were to do that, and happen that old thread is being search and read, photos has been removed. What's the logic here?

Is this what you were trying (below)?

To upload from the computer, go down to the reply box and click "Go Advanced". When it takes you to the new page, look under the reply box, under "Additional Options", and click the "manage attachments". When the window pops up, you can click on the "browse" buttons at the top to upload the pics.

You can also click "Go Advanced" and click the paper clip at the top of the reply box to get to the same pop up window.


Or you can post a link to where you have your photos stored, if you allow public access to them.
