A good friend of mine bought this from a collector in Italy, it came with low end parts and he lost interest. He knew I was a long time Bianchi fan and had welded a lot of titanium in the past, so we did a deal. It took a little effort to get the proper mid 90's Record parts, but it came out almost correct.

I only know of one other Bianchi 1996 PR bike, and that's in Japan. Somewhere some body knows how many got built and where they went. They were not popular because of their weight.
