Yeah, I'd started to get the sneaking feeling that this was the case. Problem is, now I need to find a 55 cm Bianchi frame in celeste that's essentially the same as the one I have now. I don't think they make 54 cm frames, but I'd asked about 54 cm frames in my original query because there's a Lemond frame I'm interested in at that size.
