Bianchi Reparto Corsa TSX: What should I do?
Hi everyone,
I've been lurking for a while now. Helpful place!
Through a series of unfortunate eBay encounters, I have come into possession of a Bianchi Reparto Corsa TSX frame from the early 90s. It came with a worn set of Dura Ace 74xx series components which I promptly removed. The frame is my size and I must confess to being enamored with it: the color, the heritage and the craftsmanship.
I have a very nice 2001 Trek 5200 OCLV with Ultegra 6500 that I use now, but I like the idea of building up this Bianchi and getting it back on the road to compliment or perhaps replace the Trek. So my question is this: should I go for used period-correct components from Campagnolo or Shimano....or should I build this up with a fresh set of r8000 Ultegra? Positives and negatives to both directions. I'm curious what you would do in my place.
