    De Rosa Primato Diamante EL Sapphire Blue Frame Set
    This is a pristine example of a De Rosa ‘Primato’ lugged steel road frame set with a chrome De Rosa fork.
    It is constructed of oversized Columbus EL (Extra Leggeri) tubing.
    The frame is finished in a what we believe to be Sapphire Blue’ with white decals and pinstriping. The signature of Ugo De Rosa is prominently displayed on the seat tube.
    The fully chrome plated fork is engraved on the sides with the De Rosa name and topped with red hearts on both sides of the crown.
    The chain stays are referred to as Diamante, meaning diamond shape in cross section. The drive side chain stay is chrome plated.  All of the dropouts are chrome plated, and each has the De Rosa name engraved therein.
    There is a front derailleur mount brazed onto the seat tube,  and there are mounting sites for water bottles on both the seat tube and down tube.
    This frame and fork are in incredible condition.  There is no evidence that the fork has ever been utilized, and there does not appear to be any “wear and tear” from any road use.  In fact, the rear drop outs show no evidence of use.  There are no dents or dings, but there are some small scuffs and paint nicks in areas which you would expect from storage and/or light use.
