nice bike. always liked the painted fork crown and i notice the crimped ends of the down tube.
sante i did so love your bianchi. sante have you ever come across any. well ,different makes of race bikes there
in italy? ones that we are not likely to have heard of ?

Quality - the welds are something else, a lot of skill involved in making them so tidy. Nice tight geometry and quality component list - super build all round.

no i have not and would like to hear more about these uncommon makes im sure a lot of readers would.
of course i am but a mere novice [ and god knows how i got badged a guru ??]
i havent even read up on post war british bikes yet.
but i have a billato built lemond[currently being rebuilt] and the handling knocked the crap out of anything else i'd
ridden .. so i spose i am a fan of italian road bikes but like to see different ones also.
