Well done T-Mar - not only for knowing this information but also for remembering it. I would love to have a copy of the "T-Mar Bicycle Encyclopaedia" if you ever write this stuff down.
I'm not sure about the in-roads of Bianchi into Australia but I suspect that many of the Bianchi's I see here have been imported by individuals. The model's I have come across have from in and around the Piaggio era look very similar to the catalogues depicted on the Bulgier site. Later on in the 90's a grandson or great grandson of Eduardo imported them but he was very un-reliable so they are thin on the ground. Thanks T-Mar for sharing your knowledge.
