is that pic and article from the US interbike show or a show else where? if Bianchi Italy is reissuing and showing it at shows there is no guarantee that it will be available in the states. Bianchi USA's offerings are different from what is sold else where.

as to the color, Celeste has had many many shades over the years and I believe 'back in the day' (especially motorbike racing) it was much bluer looking.

there had been a bike/frame similar to this the last few years the DOLOMITI, but the cost of a complete bike was rather expensive and a carbon or alloy bike could be had with better components for less.

I am not sure about the brazeons on the stays but back int he '80s lots of the top bikes had eyelets on the dropouts.

this is on Ebay for $850 http://cgi.ebay.com/BIANCHI-DOLOMITI...item27bb0d350f
