  1. I know that a few of you have posted on this topic in the (distant)
    past, but I was wondering if anyone has any relatively recent feedback
    on Della Santa frames. I know all about the LeMond connection, yadda,
    yadda, yadda. I would like to know if you own one, what type of
    tubing, how long it took, how was the ordering process, etc. I am
    thinking of buying one, but to do so, my wife says that the Ti Merckx
    has to go (she simply doesn't get it).

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Dave

  2. I bought one in 1981, took 4 months, Columbus SL for rear triangle and front
    fork, Cinelli lugs and BB shell, main triangle was SP. 58.75 cm frame size.
    I still have the frame, in my fat masters state, the chain stays are a bit
    too flexible.

    Tim Parker at some bike shop in CA (12/02 cover of Bicycling?, probably has
    moved on, maybe back to NorCal) is probably a good pipeline to the current
    state of Roland's effort. He had been working at Cindy O's shop in
    Berkeley, I believe.

    Good luck.
