Blue Piaggio Bianchi with Suntour and Dia-Compe components
Hi everyone,
New to the site and recently acquired this bike from an older gentleman that was downsizing from a house to a condo. Paid $200 CDN for it and spent $145 for a tune-up, rear wheel rebuilding and handle bar wrap.
What I do know:
Suntour Cyclone components
Dia-Compe Brakes
Sakae Custom handle bar
Sella Italia Anatomic saddle
Nisi rims
I heard that there are some Bianchi experts on here so please help me out with the value and model of this beauty.
Serial stamped is JS15663

It`s a 1982 Japanese manufactured model. The Shimano 600EX crankset is period correct but may not be OEM, as it is in conflict with the SunTour derailleurs and Dia-Compe brakes. It is the equivalent of a Bianchi Limited but the Canadian models during this era had different names. I`ll defer to others on value.
