spring is almost here i can feel it. bike race season is starting in the warm climates, my bike is longing for it to get above 40 or so (sorry, i’m no cold weather biker). anyway, time to start up again!
ugo de rosa‘s been around forever. for real. he started designing bikes way back in the early 1950s and has been a mainstay on the scene ever since. de rosas are maybe not as famous as some of the other italian companies but they have a great reputation and a lot of history. they’ll even make some bikes to measure, so you know they take biking seriously (i also found this great old pic of de rosa with eddy merckx):
