Interesting question, one would think that the
japanese frames would have been built to specifications
coming from Bianchi Italy. For the most part the better
Bianchi's were made in Italy, while the more entry level bikes were made in japan. I'd be very surprized tho if the
rides were significantly different. I wonder if this has been discussed on Classic rendezvous? I might check the
archives and see what I can find out.
