De Rosa? (moved thread)

Wasn't sure which forum to post in so I moved this here...


Hello, and thanks advance for any information...

I am new here, and admittedly do not know much at all about bikes, hence why I am here! My wife bought this bike here in Germany for $100, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the year, ect. in case we need that info. for parts or anything? Basically, anything you can tell me about the bike would be helpful, as I can't even find this bike on the internet, except the brand itself. thanks!

My guess is that it is not a DeRosa or a Colnago. For one thing they are different companies. A previous owner thought it would be a fine joke to put these markings on this ladies' city bike.

You mean those two builders didn't make bikes with twist grip shifters?

Was it a joint effort?

Was this bike for sale in either Colorado or Washington state? Maybe Washington DC?
