My Bianchi NTH (Oria Tubes)

[ibbz]

This is another good reference
Contains the following photos plus a load more - there’s a 103 photo in the montage of bikes
You’ll need to check if the bottom bracket shell has Bianchi cast into it - if so it’s a Reparto Corse frame. The frame material is as the Grizzly and Osprey

Ok, I’m slowly expanding my archive, I’d love to open a new thread on NTH;
but first, here’s an early ‘90s Oria ad!

Sneak peek from the shop. I honestly can’t wait to complete the build!

Absolutely stunning
I have to say it’s the best looking Nth I’ve seen - this should be entered in BoTM

Thanks, that would be great. Maybe I’ll wait for the underdog theme, since most NTH I see around are made with Columbus Steel

BoTM Thread 'Canuckbiker's 1990 Bianchi Sika is the February 2025 Bike of The Month'

Apr 1, 2025

@Canuckbiker took the win in our February "lugged special" competition. The Bianchi came out on top, with an impressive 24.8% of the votes, of a field of 14 bikes. You can read the build thread here and see the rest of the nominees in the poll thread here. Hard to believe that this beauty was dragged out of a dumpster back in 2019!

Great choice with the forks though forks always look better without the rubber gaitors
