Bianchi's for the canadian market often make no sense at all. My husband has 2 bianchis, he took this one for a long ride, did not notice anything wrong and loved it. He is jealous because it is celeste and too small for him.
Bianchi special tubing. photos taken, just have to upload...
I misread your post and thought just the axle was broken. With Bianchi Special tubing it may be an '85 or '86 and sounds like a Alloro or Nuovo Alloro. Ambrosio rims were pretty popular replacement rims as they were about half the cost of a Mavic MA-40 in the later '80s.
