Full geometry here https://www.afrit13.com/bianchi/Bianchi Catalogus 2007 EN.pdf see page 26.The frame is in the middle of the range of sizes A1 = 550.
I am 175 cm tall, and it fits me.

Frame is from 2007. It has been well-used, but still in vgc. There is a very small dent near the bottom of the down-tube. If you didn’t know it was there, you wouldn’t spot it.
Hard to value! I have seen others for sale for £1,000, 1,200 or more. I am thinking that ~£700 is reasonable, given the condition. But it’s only worth what someone will pay, so offers will be considered.

I am in Cambridge. Ideally buyer collects, but I can deliver within a reasonable distance.

A nice bike and a comprehensive advert and photos, much better than some on here that don't consist of much more than 'Bike for sale', no photos and anyone interested has to ask the seller for any basic details.

What a shame that bikes such as this are reduced to these prices, this would have been a top bike in 2007, even with Centaur and not Record. It will still be perfectly fine for anyone who isn't fussed about disc brakes, 1x chainsets and all the latest tech.

Good luck with the sale.

Nice one, I have an '05 with carbon stays. These are great bikes, and I think your ask is reasonable.

Nice bike, just like mine.

Your giving it away.

That's fine with me. Keep an eye on the listing to see if anything changes, but it's still available at the moment. Let me know when you have an idea of when you might be in the area,

Thanks for the feedback. I used to ride it loads, and agree - very nice bike. But, now I do a different kind of riding, so I hardly use it at all. I'm not desperate to sell it, but it seems a shame to have it in the garage (looking nice), when someone else might actually use it. Hence the price.

There are a few more of these hidden away than I realised; I've never seen another one 'on the road'. As in my earlier reply, I'm not desperate for a fast sale, but I think the bike should be used - which I am not doing! I agree that it is probably worth more to the right buyer, but as The Bat points out, that person is going to be more interested in the frame and brand rather than disc brakes and the latest groupset.

Mine doesn’t have carbon seat stays

Yup, the earlier versions had the carbon stays.
