Bianchi from the 80's
So heres a road bike on Kijiji for 150 bucks but talked the seller down to 120 bucks since the back wheel has a flat tired. I believe this bike came out in the 80's but I could be wrong. The frame was painted black and the back wheel is the only component's that not original. The bike needs an adjustment with the rear brake and replacment for the rear inner tube before it was in rideable condition.
Does anyone know the exact model and was it worth getting?

Hard to tell anything from that pic other than the bike was probably white and repainted black with the decals masked off.
can you get more pics? Personally I think it needs a lot more than a tube and rear brake adjustment.
I’d pass unless it was closer to $50.

Looks like an early to mid-1980s, Japanese manufactured, entry level model. Serial number and better photos req'd. Almost looks like there are missing headset pieces. I'd probably have passed at even $50.
