Road Bike, older Trek 400 http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=421118 "I have a very nice used road bike. This was the very first good road bike I owned. I have not ridden in in years, so it is still very nice, has newer tires on it. 12 spd Frame size 57 cm bike is about 32-33 years old Weighs about 23 lbs and is good for road rides or touring." |
I had this same frame in celeste once upon a time. It's got frame panto, ovalized tubes, pearlized paint and it's stamped a 57 even thought he calls it a 56. The sales literature called it the "TSX Ultralight." Believe it or not, it probably has shimano dropouts and an english thread BB (at least mine did. Probably Bianchi trying to be "world friendly".) I assure you though, it is everything you'd ever want it to be. It was only in a temporary moment of insanity that I sold mine to help pay for an aluminum Pinarello when that is what everyone wanted.

This looks interesting, and I believe it has been for sale for over a month now. He is calling it a Campione del Mondo because of the world champ decal but it is actually a great Reparto Corse EL TSX frame. $580 in Costa Mesa Bianchi Campione de mondo full campy

BG, that seller has more than ID problems: there's no clearance between the rear wheel and seat tube! What's up with that?

I too have seen this ad, since I live in Costa Mesa. I don't know what level of Campy is on there and is that 8 speed? Looks like the rims don't match. Bummer. If it was 1 size bigger I probably would have checked it out. You and I ride the same size I think.
Perhaps the seller needs a better description in his ad and a less cluttered surrounding. And a Celeste Bianchi!!;) Even here in sunny SoCal prices are a bit down this time of year from my experience. It even rained the last 2 days which we need. I am going to ask about the parts on it. http://images.craigslist.org/00K0K_3...zd_600x450.jpg http://images.craigslist.org/00E0E_i...p3_600x450.jpg |

Good price for just the parts (or even just the Mavic MA40s). If I wasn't on a bike freeze right now I would probably grab it myself. [h=2]Cannondale - $100 (N. Bethesda)[/h] http://images.craigslist.org/00k0k_2...A3_600x450.jpg Half Tone Blue/ Gray CANNONDALE with top notch components. My boyfriend built this bike by hand and used top notch parts. I rode it everywhere and have now switched to another hobby so it's been sitting for a while and needs some love (aka air and grease). Otherwise, it's a beautiful bike and rides like a dream. I don't know much about bikes but here are some of the components: Shimano 600 Tioga Surafoot Shimano Friction Edge Brake Handles Dia Compe $85 cash pick up. No returns |

^I'd be nervous if I were riding that as-is. I would probably change the rear tire to be at least giving *some* clearance!! I guess it's my history of en-dos that that sort of things chills me to the bone...

So, this Mexico just sold in Miami 1 hr after it was listed. Was given to owner over 20 years ago by friend who was on tour in Italy... $450 I couldn't get to it quick enough. Any idea of what something like this would go for in good condition? I was unable to find any examples with the number on the seat tube. Hunter |

Maybe they saw your post because they bumped up their asking price to $200 (they probably just got bombarded with interested buyers).
Also, that's some interesting brake cable routing.

I think the whole group is Record, there were a couple of years that Campy didn't label the components as Record, the only way to know is by the finish and interior workings. I could be wrong but, whatever it is, it is nice looking and that is a great price for a great Bianchi. Were it my size, I'd be looking for a facilitator...

It's a 5 minute drive. He just verified it's 8 speed. 1 wheel has a Campy hub, the other is? He says he does not know. :eek: |
Countdown to 1,000 pages and 25,000 posts. :thumb: Wonder how many bikes were purchased as a direct result of this thread.

Is anyone else excited about this thread reaching 1000 pages?
