I think the price in this range is fair. Their most iconic MTB is Rampichino from mid eighties. I’ve seen them go for anywhere from 200 to 400 Euro on Italian classifieds.

Too big for me. Otherwise I would have gone for it. This is a nice initiative. Hope somebody takes it.

Size?

Found several and do not need more at this time.
Thanks for your help.

Sweet.
GLWS!

Looking for something cheap, but that will not kill me at the same time.
Single speed with flip flop rear hub ideally.
Steel, aluminium, whatever...
Appearance not very important, but in good condition in terms of cycling, so I don't have to invest money and spend a lot of time servicing.
Front brake would be a good thing.

Size 54 cm.
Budget around 100 pounds.
Donation will be made to forum as well.
Thanks

Anyone have any of these?
Pls let me know.
Thanks.

Too expensive

Dibs
Vintage 3T stamped 'Gimondi' 42cm, 26mm £5 - see stem below

Sold something similar recently. I can tell you that you will struggle to get more than 200£.

Still available.
Anyone interested?
Going to eBay tomorrow.

Yes. Send me a private message please.

Final price drop - 250 GBP

Going to ebay after that.
Anyone interested?
Bike is more than 40 years old, rides great, fully restored.
Just sandblasting and a paint job costs well over 100 GBP in London for example.

Price drop - 280 GBP

Yes. That is one possibility. Sprint had in 70s that specific round decal on seat tube that it had when I bought it. Also has the same droupouts and similar geometry.

Price drop - 300 GBP

Thanks Phil. Great info.
Going thru some emails now I received from an Italian forum when I restored the bike.
Somebody did mention it was probably built by Chiorda - Italian manufacturer active in 70s and doing work for Bianchi.
Still a bike that is over 40 years old , restored, and a nice ride.

Serial number is 78378
It is impossible to find it using these. Bianchi was terrible with serial numbers back in those days. Also reused them a lot. There are some online registers, but very incomplete.
Sheldon brown said it was a mid level Bianchi from mid 1970s. Decals and equipment confirm that. Also the story of the owner who bought it in mid 1970s.
Not sure of the exact model.
Check original state images - https://microcosm.app/out/wYnvh

Here are pics of it's original state.

Confirmed authenticity with several people who know their stuff - both in Italy and online. For example Sheldon Brown - http://www.sheldonbrown.com

Absolutely. Have images of it's original state. Will post them. Give me a sec.

Bike in London, as I live there now.
I am from Croatia. My home town is just 45 minutes drive from Italy.
This Bianchi was bought in a small village near Trieste in Italy.
It was sitting in an attic for years.
Based on decals, frame, and serial number - it is from mid 1970s.

It has been fully restored.
Originally it was painted red.
Frame was professionally sandblasted and painted into Bianchi Tomato Red colour.
New high quality decals applied.
All other parts thoroughly cleaned and serviced.
It rides beautifully.

I then transported it to London just recently.
I am selling it mainly because it is too big for me, but also because lack of space and needing the money for other projects.

ORIGINAL
Frame - size 56 cm
Simplex Derailleur - cleaned, taken apart, some components changed with NOS ones, works great.
Dia Compe brakes - new pads
Lepper stem
SAKAE Crankset
Mavic Normandy wheels - thoroughly polished - in great condition

NEW
Bianchi handlebar tape
Chain
Pedals
Wires - Shimano
Selle Italia Turbo seat
Tyres - Vittoria

On the wall since restored.
Only had a few test rides - less than 10 miles in total.

I am looking for 350 pounds.
Collection preferred. Would consider posting.
Can been seen in London - SE17.
Thanks for looking.

This one?

Confused. It is from Bristol, but says 52cm and blue?

Used.
But in good condition.
Would consider any color.
Can get a new one for around 330£, so would expect a nice discount on that.

Thanks

Sold?
