I think the other reason why it got little traffic (381 hits), is that De Rosa was mispelled (or is it misspelled?) as DeRosa. Without a space between the two names, a search for De Rosa would not get a hit for this DeRosa bike.

The photos were not helpful either. There were no shots of the graphics (but there was a great one of the dull underside of the pedal!).

so why did this alleged mid 1980s De Rosa SLX with almost complete Campy Super Record gruppo, sell for so cheap on Ebay? _http://ebay.com/<blah> (http://ebay.com/<blah> )

If it was only listed under collectibles-transportation-cycling-other brands, then that could be a huge reason. Listing under sporting goods-cycling would get more traffic I believe. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
