Bianchi would never have made a dog of a road bike like that. In any case, why would someone want to use this particular bike as the basis of a commuter? IMO the o.p. the bike, the poster vetting it. All are suspect. Yet another reason I don't think much of Craigslist as a source for bikes. I once wasted an entire day going to Portland to see a nice Spec. Allez. When I got there I saw this bike. It looked like a puppy.... its feet were way too big. Then I noticed the tires were 1-1/4 clinchers with schraeder valves. Then I noticed the brakes were uber cheap long reach calipers. Then I stopped looking and hightailed it out of there with my wad intact. Shudder... I don't know... weren't Bianchi's of that vintage, a particular shade of light green called 'Celeste'?
