My son's single speed Bianchi completed. The frame is an original 1988/89 Bianchi Mondiale with Columbus SLX tubing. I transferred the original Campagnolo Athena group to my other Bianchi SL as this frame is to small for me. Excuse the padded seat cover and lock my son is a student. There is a beautiful vintage leather seat under the cover.

My commuter single speed.

 

Initially had a lot of other ideas as to what I wanted to do but for practicality's sake had to stick to 2 brakes .... free-hub, sturdy pedals and handlebars that is comfortable :)

 

Rides as steel should (Columbus SLX tubing) ... The 175 crank arms helps the 53 x 19 along. No major hills on the way to work :)

Very nice. Please switch the skewer closure levers to the non drive side of the bike. Just looks better on the other side.

 

What did you do with all the bits you took off the De Rosa?
