Ugo is one of the biggest supporters of 'made in Italy'. He will openly state that where possible, he wil always use Italian products where possible. If you look at all of the pro teams ever to use De Rosa frames, I don't think there was ever a single one that used non-Italian componentry. The same cannot be said about Colnago, Pinarello, Bianchi...
The next time I speak to Ugo's son Cristiano, I'll ask about the Reynolds forks.

> Main frame is Columbus, while fork is Reynolds 531.
> The seller said that's the way DeRosa made them because
> Reynolds made "better forks."
