medici 65cm : http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac...262901407.html $350

bianchi 64cm : http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv...274274609.html $275


I think I might try to grab the bianchi tomorrow. Unless others have anything to comment on? I am riding a 60cm bike right now that is too small, that someone is ready and willing to pay me $165 for.
Of the two, I like the medici more. But, I would be surprised if either lasted long on a campus. The Campy parts of the medici will make it a target and the Bianchi name will probably do the same. The bianchi certainly appears to be in better shape, but, doesn't have nearly the component spec.
