When I picked up my Bob Jackson in 1973, the owner of Mann Cycles, Richard Mann, was unpacking 4 new DeRosas that he had just imported after a trip to Italy. He was very excited and then almost collapsed after he found a dented top tube. He decided that had to be his bike because if he sent it back or even complained he figured the 'old man' {Ugo?} would never talk to him again.He claimed that these were the first DeRosa's imported into the states. Anybody know if this timing sounds right. Steve
