well it is old so it must be vintage, so it must be worth alot of money even though almost every part has been stripped from it.

Q: I am in the market for a large frame Bianchi, but you will receive no offers from anyone for this item until you either reduce the starting price to maybe $300 AND add at least six photos showing details and component manufacturer markings. A clear set of frame measurements is a must, as well. See you in the re-list! Nov-13-09
A: The price is not the starting price> ITS NOT A AUCTION ITS A SALE. BEST OFFER so if you want to make a offer? THEN Offer $300.00. If you need more info then ask,And i will for sure help with info. AS I SAY I DONT DO BIKES< THERE WILL NOT BE A RELIST IT WILL GO IN THE SCRAP PILL WITH THE REST of the bikes then into the crusher THANKS

"The size is not so large that even a woman could ride it."
Wait, does that mean a woman could ride it, or a woman couldn't ride it. I have heard that bikes have to be a certain size before women can ride them whereas men are able to ride bikes of all sizes :-D
