i’m remodeling a bathroom and of course it went over budget so stuff has to go. i was gonna build this up with a campy group to have an italian ride but never got around to it.
it’s a USED 2003 planet in a size 53 with the sloping top tube. it was $1900 back in '03, $350 + shipping in CONUS now. (de rosa’s usually go for more on fleabay but i’m too lazy to list it there). comes with an ISIS bottom bracket and i have an FSA compact team crank that i can include for a small fee.
this is a file photo but the frame that i have is this exact color.
here’s what DeRosa says:
The quick response and weight of Aluminum and the comfort of a monocoque carbon fiber wishbone seatstay. The planet’s light weight Dedacciai Mega-Tubes are hand assembled by the DeRosa family at their workshop outside Milan. They’re proprietary geometry endows this frame with the handling and stability that have long been associated with the DeRosa name. To further insure that the Planet’s ride reflects its family heritage, each is equipped with a special DeRosa Unicrown fork. In the planet, the DeRosa family has successfully blended the lightweight and stiffness of today’s Mega-Tube aluminum frames, with the craftsmanship and performance typical of traditional Italian road racing frames.
The Planet comes stock with a Mizuno MR20 Shark full carbon 1-1/8" fork and an integrated Campagnolo Record Hiddenset.
