I currently own a Proto 55cm ( BCOC112 ) This was a U.S. model that was all celeste. I repainted it to replicate my older 1990ish all black Proto with the euro logo on the downtube. BCOC104 was stolen in about 93. I also had BCOC115 but it had cracked on the chain stay so I received 104 as the replacement. All 3 I have owned had the machined Bianchi head tube (which was also used on many other high end Bianchi models). They all 3 had internal TT bottom/top cable routing and internal rear der chainstay cable routing. 1 frame had 2 sets of bottle braze ons and all 3 had plastic cable guides under the B.B. shell.
