De Rosa 838, The Underdog
If it were a rider, it would be the one no one bets on at the start.
Then the road starts to climb, the race stretches out, and it’s still there.
The De Rosa 838 is like those riders who begin a step behind in the predictions, but always find a way to write themselves into the story.
It’s the model that lets you enter the De Rosa family without making too much noise — but with every intention of surprising everyone.
Delivery time: 3–10 days IF Frames available in-stock.
