Hi
I've decided to sell my Bianchi that I've just built. The cost to build it is immaterial, as it was a project I wanted to do and know that I won't see the approx. £1300.00 back
I built it using mainly Italian retro bits. A lot of them are NOS but there are new style parts i.e. the Campagnolo Record chain and very good condition retro used parts i.e. the Campagnolo Veloce cranks
Rather than uploading pictures, here's a link to some I took after the only ride I've done; to make sure all was working correctly. So is this as close you are going to get to a new retro bike?!

The only bits not Italian are the rims (Mavic), spokes (Swiss), tubes and tyres (German) and some Wurth hardened aluminium allen bolts (German)
I'm open to offers but please be sensible. It was a project that I've wanted to do for years so have now got that out of my system. Basically I'm a mountain biker now and road bikes are like stilettos; I love the look of them, how they feel and marvel the engineering that goes into them but I don't see myself using them (if you know what I mean...)
Contact me through RetroBikeUK if you want to know any more information or want to view. The bike's located in Pembrokeshire but I do venture back over the border to the South West of England by the cover of night sometimes... :shock:
