Awesome bike!!

Hi, thanks! Make me a proposal. Is very special bike. I bought this bike in Verona 6 months ago. I made little restored. This bike there isn't in Bianchi catalog. Probally this bike was for a professional biker from Team Bianchi

How long is the seat tube (c-t)?

 

[Sergio1069]

Hi incorrigible, the size of the tube is 44 cm. In the photos the saddle is positioned for my height of 171 cm

Bump!
yesterday afternoon an old Team Bianchi rider called me. He complimented me on the beautiful bicycle. He says that this bike is probably a Bianchi prototype

is this because of the Martini paint job and NTH logos, or is there something else different to the other several models from ~1995-97 with that frame design?


But indeed Martin racing and celeste color in conjunction with the Wildgripper and nice FRM wheel set etc. is a great combination.

Hi Joglo, thanks for your message!
Yes, I had also seen this model which has the identical frame shape. The frame material is not 7005 Aluminum as indicated in the catalogue, but a strange 7020. The group is a complete Shimano XT, the fork is a more recent Judy XC, the rear shock absorber does not seem the same, while the rear stay seems the same to me.
The wheels are my property, because when I purchased the bike 6 months ago, it had inappropriate slick asphalt wheels.
Even the weight of my bike seems slightly lower than the 12.4 kg indicated in the catalogue
My bike seems like an evolution of this model
