Hello! I brought this Bianchi frame from internet but i don't know exactly it's name...from what i know so far it must be a Rekord 905 but i can't find this color scheme anywhere on internet...and if it's not a Bianchi..could it be a fake?
Please help me identify this frame! Thank you!

I don't think it's entirely a fake: Bianchi used those GPM dropouts and the Tre-Tubi Oria decal looks legit, but I think you are correct about it being a Euro-market frame, similar to the Rekord 905 that was sold primarily in Germany and Austria.
Maybe [MENTION=159681]Bianchigirll[/MENTION] will have some info to share...is anything stamped in/on the seatstay caps?

I don't know Bianchi's, but it looks like the decals are as weathered as the paint. I would pull the fork and see if the paint over spray matched the frame. There may also be tubing info there.

It appear to be the same color frame/fork...the only info i see is the serial number on head tube.

It looks like a 1988-ish Rekord 902:






You can check out more pics in the listings here, here and here



Apparently, they also came in a red/white fade:

RO? Yes you mentioned in your first post you found it on the internet but, knowing where a bike comes from helps us as different areas get differet models, colors and components. Here in the US we had I think one record model and while I have to doubke check j think only one Oria tubed bike.

Wow it seems to be a rare frame in US.. I bought it from a guy from Timisoara, Romania..i'm also from Romania. I bought it because i like the proportionality of the frame and i want it to become a single speed bike. Now i know that the frame is an entry level from Bianchi 1988 and it has Oria tubing. Please sorry for my bad english! And thank you for your interest! Best regards!
