Bianchi Campione D' Italia
Hey ladies and gents. I've had this Old Bianchi for a couple years now but never got around to taking pics. It's a late 80s or early 90s Campione d' Italia with a couple upgrades. Stock components are Suntour quattro front and rear Ds, ofmega cranks/headset. I put on Shimano sora STIs (only ones I could find in a 2x7), Campy record cranks, campy rims on shimano 600 hubs, and I've got Campy veloce brakes in the mail. It's my main steed and treats me well. Just yesterday I got my 105 pedals and Shimano road shoes and took them on my first ride this morning. Happy to report no spills. It helps when you keep the springs loose as you get used to them. Enjoy!

The current brakes are Dia-compe roayal compe 400. They're not bad and the white looks cool but they're old and a bit worn.
The freewheel is a shimano 7 speed something or other. Not a fancy group.
I know based on how high the seat is it would appear the bike is too small for me but my 60cm trek 1100 leaves me stretched out with back aching. I guess I have long legs and a short torso....
