We just got this Bianchi Volpe and want to know more about it -- we were told its a 1991 but arent sure.

It says made in taiwan on it
it also says "superset II tange cromo double butted"
breaks: diacomp
suntour X1 cranks and derailer
rims are araya
sakae handlebars and seatpost
its black with blue decals and a blue stripe with purple accent behind the 'bianchi'

hope that helps...
we'd also be interested to know how much people think this bike should cost.
thanks!

It's hard to tell what year it is without seeing a close-up of the decals, but with those decals, it looks like it could be a '91; otherwise, probably a '90. The color is right for a '91, don't know if that color was available in '90 or not.

Price, I would guess at $250.
