Retro 1994 pro race frame/fork made at the legendary Bianchi Reparto Corse facility in Italy. This frame has the classic Nuovo Celeste paint color with a metallic pearl finish, the hallmark color of Bianchi's team racing bicycles for more than 60 years. It has never been ridden in the rain or inclement conditions. It is a very smooth, yet agile ride due to the tight race geometry. It is lively, comfortable and responsive. A unique, retro bike. The 32 spoke wheels give fantastic strength and a more confident feel than modern wheels with less spokes, especially on steep or curvy descents.
