Thinking about picking this up, just wondering what the value is. And also quality, I don't know much about Bianchi, thanks. It's a Nuova Alloro, nuovo record derailleurs and shifter, modolo brakes and levers. Ofmega hubs with Mavic rims. New gatorskins and Cinelli tape.

Nothing?

In an older thread here, Bianchigirl stated $300 for a Celeste example, which yours is. Celeste is a special color for Bianchi, all the high end bikes were Celeste back in the day.

Tretubi means the three main tubes are decent lightweight mid grade Columbus, the other tubes are heavier and probably straight gauge. The components are decent, but an all Campy bike would bring more. There is a little wear on the chain stay, but it can be touched up. The rest of the paint is good.

In the 87 catalog, it was listed as the top of the Performance series, below the Professional and Competition, but above Sporting. I'd place this one as early 80s.

On pricing it really depends on the market. Here in Toronto, where prices are high, that would go for $600 these days.

Thanks!

I'd say a 1984 give or take a year.
Agree on everything else.

Nice riding bikes- I have a Nuova Racing that is very similar. Upgraded the wheelset to Mavic with Campy hubs and had a buyer here in Dallas for $500. I had to break the bad news that after I slept on it, I couldn't go through with it. Still feel bad about that.
