Yoshiaki Nagasawa worked at DeRosa in 1970s. When I was in Milan , some
members of G.S. Lupo were from Cusano Milanino and remembered him and said
he was working very hard. I heard that details of DeRosa frame had become
cleaner thanks to Nagasawa.
After returned home, he built frames mainly for top keirin racers,
especially Koichi Nakano who 10 times won sprint races at World
Championship. He also supplied investment cast lugs and crowns he designed
to other frame builders. My friend was tempted by him to be a frame builder.
