Loose cog Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 With much sadness I have decided to sell my Pinarello Montello project as the frame is just to big for me and I have to many projects at the moment. https://www.bikehub.co.za/index.php?app=hubmarket&module=core&do=view_item&item_id=369271&new=1
HeartCoppi Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Need some help here please. Happened apon a steel Bianchi? Well let's start with confirmation that the caps "B" inside a tight circle on the tips of the seat stays indicates a Bianchi please ?? If it is a Bianchi...then, I add that the seat stays are beautifully aero. Does any one know more about which model and year it could be? The frame has been badly repainted so I have no other notes.

EvanB Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 Are those hyperons tubbies or clinchers Evan? Beautiful buildclinchers
kamaalo Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 @heartcoppi I speak under correction but if it is a bianchi it could be tsx Columbus tubing? Iv seen it on late model bianchis that have internal cable routing. The seat stays are more aero HeartCoppi 1

Ibex Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 careful this dude doesnt dive at you out of the sun and shoot you down you cursed red baron lol “In a car you're always in a compartment, and because you're used to it you don't realize that through that car window everything you see is just more TV. You're a passive observer and it is all moving by you boringly in a frame. On a cycle the frame is gone. You're completely in contact with it all. You're in the scene, not just watching it anymore, and the sense of presence is overwhelming.”― Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance Kenty 1
Ibex Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Here is a real 12 speed classic. In 1997 I walked into Italian Cycles in Sandown where I saw this brand new Bianchi that looked like it was from a different era. Robbie Galinetti, the shop owner told me that it had been found in the customs facility in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania (still in its box from the factory) and had been shipped to him to sell. I bought it on the spot for R1 500.00. It is still completely original except that the brake hoods have disintegrated. It still has the original tubbies and Bianchi pump and water bottle and suede Sella Italia saddle.It must be an early 1980's model. (The pedals have been removed to save space in storage.)
