just recieved my new de rosa protos, beautiful frame!!!! will post pics when it is built, still waiting for some parts.
I have a black King that looks nice with silver bar tape. I found some that says (what else) "Carbon Bar Tape" forget where I found it, probably Excel Sports. Anyway, it, the bar tape, has some texture, but it is also impermeable so you can wipe off the grease and dirt with 409 or simple green. Lasts, too.smokva said:Very nice bike! I hope it rides as good as it looks.
BTW I think that white cork is not the best choice
If that "carbon" cork tape is similar to the one LOOK makes I wouldn't reccomend it. It is very slippery when your hands become swet.Gnarly 928 said:I have a black King that looks nice with silver bar tape.

i'm wondering: yesterday i took the weight of avant: frame + clamp 1140gr, size 55 slop.andesman said:some facts for the moment being
weight frame + seatpost clamp: 1110 grs (size 54 cms)
weight fork uncut: 375 grs
Finish is incredible
You complaining about it being too light? Avant is advertized as 1180 g in medium size.ritzenflitzer said:i'm wondering: yesterday i took the weight of avant: frame + clamp 1140gr, size 55 slop.![]()
