Help identifying a vintage Bianchi Eros
I *think* it's a 1993 judging by the date codes on the Shimano components, but could use some confirmation from someone in the know.
Not a spec of rust... just a few nicks and scratches. Picked this up for $50! I think I got a great deal on a classic. (too bad it's not Celeste)
Thanks in advance!

I can't get to me catalogs for a few weeks but I agree it certainly looks like a '93. Is this SuperSet-2? The barends are not OEM but a nice addon.
At $50 this was a great deal.

Damn, you got a great deal! Looks a lot like a '93 or '94, per the BikePedia specs: https://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/B...e#.UACrdlJEIQ0

Thanks for looking.. yes it's superset-2. It's beautiful bike, I think I may start saving them too!
When I saw the ad on Kijiji (Canadian version of CL) I could't get out there fast enough to snatch it up!
