Anyone have any info on Roberto Bellesi, frame builder from Italy?

I have one of his frames I purchased about 12 years ago. It's made with Genius tubing and rides quite nice IMO. He used to have a website but it's long gone.

I've come across one of his frames with Columbus Foco (Thermacrom Alloy) tubes... and I'm on the fence about it... mostly just because I've never heard of him.. Looks solid, but I won't be able to ride it before purchase. :confused:

Well FWIW I would buy another of his frames if the price was right.

Cool, thanks guys. BBD, that thread you posted the link to is a real treat. Makes me sweat, so many beautiful bikes in there.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Bellisi I've come across.. Getting it for 100 plus shipping.. (and comes with a carbon fork, and campy carbon seatpost, and king HS!) It's got a little rust, but looks great otherwise. I'll post pics here once I get it built up.
