Hi folks,
Been reading forum for a long time, first bike i would bother putting up here between all these beautiful bikes.
I broke my De Rosa king xs last year in a stupid crash, so had to replace it. Thought the Protos was the prettiest De Rosa they had this year so i ordered one. Build it up with the old groupset, wheels and components.
Build list:
Campagnolo record eps V3
Campagnolo shamal
Deda 35 cockpit
Selle C59 saddle
Still need some more stuff, would like some advice on some lightweight bottle cages and a place to get some titanium hardware.
Kind regards

Congrats on the Protos. Have you considered some deep carbon rims.
How does it ride?

@rlanger thanks for the tip but looking for a euro based source, also need sone titanium hardware for speedplay pedals
@Seedster thought about it for sure budget wise i am pretty much done now. Only wheels that i want to put in is a set of Bora's. It rides great feels really stiff (stiffer then the king) but the biggest difference is the braking thats were the bike stands out compared to tge king

Ordered some Tune wassertrager 2.0 and deda perferato bar tape. Before any major updates need to sort out my shifting its a bit off.
Like everyone else I love the colour, great choice enjoy
