Far from the best pics but this is my trio of 928s. The green t-cube is far too big for me to ride, I may sell the components and keep the frame. Will I ever even ride the l’una? TBC.

I have one of these, to me one of the most desirable Bianchi frames. I took mine up alp de huez in 2023. It was absolutely heavenly to ride up but I found the handling bloody terrifying riding down to the start - incredibly twitchy with a speed wobble that appeared before 30mph. Clearly...

Here she is… very strange thing to ride around on the yard. I didn’t put any effort in as the hubs on the Spinergy aren’t great great, but initial impression is that the rear is very stiff and the front has a heavy top out. hopefully Interesting for people to see one break cover! I can only...

lads lads…

£110!

It’s even cheaper on fb. I’m tempted by this as a bianchisti but at the same time I’m just not that fussed 😂. it would be a better sell if he said who the rider was and when.

Bump: I got one 🤩 (from the seller mentioned above, after some negotiation) if people are interested, I’ll be happy to provide some detail and pictures on it. I’ve been looking for one for years and there is very little information out there. I’ll do something in due course to make the spec...

I’ve got a couple more since my last post; an Octane DH frame from Portugal - sadly missing the second shock and linkage. This took me a year of commenting on his Instagram whenever there was a picture of it ‘if you ever decide to sell…!’ and thanks to a member here, this absolutely time-warp...

update - I got one! Although it’s being run as a single shock, as Scott did themselves on the facelift.

It’s all over bar the shouting, really. Jobs left - - red pedals - rotate MRP (I only noticed after the pictures) - make all the bolts shiny - ride it! (Except I can’t because it’s a 400lb spring so has about 80% sag under me) - get some proper pictures

This NOS beauty just arrived at my desk…

Just had a look, thanks, that’s a good shout. Since posting I have been wondering about some red DX clipless, but I think platforms will be more fitting

She’s inching ever closer to completion. I've managed to acquire a unicorn saddle - NOS Tioga Multi Control in red / blue and am Waiting for it to arrive. Need to shorten the brake hoses and switch the rear disc for a matching one (I have the disc, but there are rounded disc bolts to deal...

Does anyone ever see these crop up? I’ve only seen one being considered for sale in the last 2 years and sadly it came to nought With the seller saying he was unsure if he really wanted to let it go and he’d let me know if he did.

As an update to this, I now have the right bars, stem and wheels. I also have a set of the right forks tracked down, just trying to sort shipping with the seller. Thanks to HK travel limitations, I still haven’t actually even seen the bike..! One day…
