Bianchi bikes should only be celeste. IMHO

Mine is a beautiful metallic charcoal / "Ralph Lauren brown" with gold lettering, but Celeste would indeed be preferable.

did you paint the pedals?
the fork looks odd to me, where it goes into the headtube, its like too small or something? I know there's nothing wrong with it, but it looks kind of funny.
Other than that, the bike looks superb, well done!

The fork is stock - may just look weird in the angle that the picture was taken.
Pedals are my old LOOK's repainted.
My goals were:
1. To have a Celeste Bianchi - (accomplished)
2. Completely clean, relube, adjust, restore - (accomplished)
3. Replace worn and or needed parts(replaced all tubes, tires, chain, bar tape, cables, seat) - (accomplished)
4. Do this all within a reasonable budget - (accomplished)
