The DeRosa rear triangle is called "Diamante" and I have a Nuovo Classico sitting in my office ready to get put together with the same great lugs...tubing is Columbus TSX. Flat crown and chrome fork and chainstay. Gorgeous red with the pearl white downtube. Can't explain why I'm not out on it right now....It don't think it will see Ebay either.
Cheers,
Randy Nelson
