I have had a couple of those entry level Bianchi bicycles and cannot recommend them. They are heavy, sluggish and poorly made, in my opinion. That said, the one presented does look to be in very good and little used condition.

However, if the price is right, and right means less than a hundred dollars, then consider the purchase. Ensure that the bicycle is a good fit before you buy. Once purchased, though the ride will not be stellar, it will, none the less be rewarding and fun to ride.
