I ride a Bianchi 58cm Columbus SP (bought around 1985 or 1986). It has Ultegra and Shimano "Quattro" components, seven gears on the rear cassette and two on the crankset. I bought it new and have been riding it ever since. I live in the Pittsburgh area and am riding my second MS150 this year. I also ride the Bianchi in short, sprint and for the first time this year half-ironman triathlons. I've been looking for a new bike but I am cheap and don't want to spend more than $1,000. Can't find one that is good as the one I have which is a good thing I suppose :o

Hi Murphy, there are a lot of us in Classic & Vintage who would assure you that you probably can't find anything nearly as nice as your Bianchi for that price.

Use this chart wisely! Hope to see you and your Bianchi over at C & V :D .

Welcome to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions :) !
