That being said, if it were my size I still would have checked it out.

Seems like a reasonable opening price for a 1960s celeste Bianchi. Thoughts?

I don't really have an opinion on the bike, but I do on the paint. Let's just say that's not my first choice. I'd probably choose the standard red Raleigh SBDU livery.

When I do a reverse image search of this bike, it takes me to a shop/virtual museum in the Seattle area:
Classic Eddy Merckx racing bike | Classic Cycle Bainbridge Island Kitsap County
Not saying it couldn't be real, just the standard caveat emptor.

Neat! How do you do a "reverse image search"?
Thanks, Dick

Dick,
Using a Google Chrome web browser, you right-click on the image in question and select "Search Google for this image". For all other browsers, you would go to www.google.com/images, click the camera icon, then either paste the image URL (https://images.craigslist.org/00j0j_b...Fe_600x450.jpg in this case) or upload it to Google if the image is stored on your computer.

I know he's a big fan of it and it seems Cannondale did a multi year run of them, granted highly doubt all/many were dedicated tourers, so you'd think they were fairly popular at least. I just know it's a cool looking rig when it's loaded for bear.

I moved about 2 years ago. If this were 2 cm smaller, I would be all over it, but I have just undertaken a significant project just today. Top Secret until it gets farther along.

Dropouts look like they're stamped. Could be just a Rekord with upgraded components?
