1995 DeRosa Primato. My opinion may differ, but I think that the ride of the Primato is a notch below that of the Nuovo Classico or Professional SLX….Still quite good and fully up to DeRosa standards, but just a little less lively. The handling is still superb. I love DeRosas.

Looks to me like a quick once over and you'd be there, at least for a good initial test ride.

That is actually a Satori, all I had at the time in silver and being so small this bike needed extreme measures and ran out of cable slack. The SP is stuck where its at and was about right so didn't get addressed.
I actually rode this several times to good effect but it won't see many miles from here, I may address the stuck SP at some point but...... we"ll see.
