I have never seen a Trofeo with anything resembling even Athena level as OEM, but they might be out there, perhaps the Trofeo was a higher end model in the 80's than the 90's.

The 90's models were lugged steel "retro" models, mostly with Italian tubing that was oval as it entered the BB. They had lower end Campy groups, and often a mix of Campy Avanti, Mirage and Miche or Ofmega components, plus Campy rims.

They're nice bikes, and the Miche/Campy wheelsets are light and pretty with ball bearing hubs.

I don't know if the 90's Trofeos were being "brought back" for some kind of retro marketing after the 80's models, or not.
BianchiGirll would know.
