Well, I bought it. Mostly because it's a good looking bike and fits me much better than the Super Leggera which I'll probably be selling now.

The components are (mostly) all from his old Eros. The frame had cracked, and through a warranty with the local bike shop or Bianchi (not sure?) he replaced it with this. Makes sense it would/could be another Eros. Most everything is indeed Mirage but some stuff on the stem is Record. I'm still a little confused since it doesn't say Eros on it anywhere.

The frame says:
Bianchi "Chromo Lite" Reparto Corse
Double Butted, Heat Treated, Mega Pro Concept
Handmade in Italy

The fork also says CRMO Double Butted

Not sure what else to say about it. Took the rear rack off and am going to change the pedals if I can get the damn things off...otherwise it rides nicely. And it came with the bike computer, which I've been meaning to get anyways. Not sure how I feel about 24 speeds though.
