Is this a good deal for a middle of the road Bianchi boom bike? Looks like it comes with air in the tubes, just lube and ride.

^^^ As wall art ABSOLUTELY! To ride it around town, sure. As a more serious rider, not so much.
Valentino's reputation is not too good.

^ That's an interesting (lack of) rake on the fork, for a touring bike.

Yeah according to a lot of Bridgestone lovers, that is THE Bridgestone, even over the RB-1 and MB-zip. I had an XO-3 but it was too small. Damn nice bike though.,,,,BD

All fun bicycles, but I really had a blast with my XO-1.
I've even had a builder draw up plans for a replica, but I keep hoping to find another pumpkin XO-1 in a big guy size.
Someday I might get lucky.

detto - 56cm - che bella!
[h=2]detto - 56cm - che bella! - $500 (Boxford)[/h]
© craigslist - Map data © OpenStreetMap
54 Valley Rd
(google map) (yahoo map)
condition: excellent size / dimensions: 56 cm
This is a very rare ride. I bought the frame in 2010 in California and built it up for the first time. The frame is from the early 1990s - Columbus tubing, lugs, chrome, a few cool stamps, and unique paint/sticker pattern ala Carlo Dossena - and now has Ultegra groupset and brakes, cinelli handlebars/stem.
Photos show all of the details. Send an email with any questions.
I am moving and must sell. Please contact me if you can give the bike a good home and take it for long rides.
500 cash, obo

Why yes I have. I live across the river from the Handsome store in Mpls.
In fact, I ride by there five times a week in the summer. I've ridden the XOXO and it is a very nice frameset for the money.
I've been holding out for another XO-1 though.
At some point I may just build an XOXO though, as they make for a great all roader.

Talking about the one I had.
I sold mine in two days for four digits plus.
The one for $1,200 has been around for quite a bit.
Plus, some of these XO-1 guys are rabid fans.
This one will eventually sell. Not to me though.
I had seven guys after mine. Two of them were "very" po'd that I didn't sell it to them.

Put a big fat one in my Bob Brown mtb two weekends ago.
Fell off going down a rock/gravel hill at the cabin.
I'm never gonna sell that bike anyway.....
