Late 70's Early 80's 58cm Bianchi Campione D'Italia

Acquired from Robert of Local Bike Outlet of Florida, this Celeste Green Bianchi frame proved to be worthy of the groupset my father had been eagerly awaiting to put on a frame. The Campagnolo Nuovo Record groupset thoroughly completes this bike in every aspect. Every available component of Campagnolo Nuovo Record's groupset is on this frame and performs flawlessly.


With that said, complimenting the Campagnolo Nuovo Record groupset are items such as Cinelli bars and stem, Mavic G 40 Rims, Brooks saddle, and OMAS bottle cage. This stays true to the time of which this frame was manufactured and what a rider might have used back in this era.


Lastly, I would like to take a moment to thank some people who made this build possible. As mentioned previously, my father and I appreciate very much Robert from Local Bike Outlet for allowing us to purchase this gem of a frame. Please be sure to check out his website for other great deals and finds. Also, Blueprint Bikes of Texas helped out by supplying the correct boss mount downtube shifters. Check out their Ebay storefront for more info and quality items. Lastly, who can forget Jim Mincher and our friends at Two WheelerDealer right here in Wilmington, NC ? Their endless customer support, constant drive to satisfy any/all customers, and low key atmosphere makes for a smoother build and ease of access to fantastic inventory.
