Description from the seller
Bianchi Sprint 28T Vintage - Vintage Racing Bicycle in Red Steel
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
In the auction is a classic and iconic vintage racing bicycle by Bianchi, model Sprint 28T, an authentic piece of Italian cycling history. The steel frame is finished in a typical and captivating bright red color, enriched by the classic white and blue original Bianchi writings and decals applied to the down tube and seat tube, accompanied by the model identifier on the top tube.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND VISIBLE COMPONENTS
The bicycle is equipped with quality vintage components. The drivetrain features a Sachs Huret rear derailleur, front derailleur Sachs Huret, shift levers mounted on the down tube, and a classic aluminum double-chainring crankset, paired with traditional pedals with toe clips. The braking system uses traditional racing brakes with red external cables and lever on the handlebars. The cockpit has a classic aluminum stem with a road bend, neatly wrapped in blue to match. The saddle is a vintage sporty model in black mounted on a metal seatpost. Completing the setup are a bottle cage fixed to the frame and classic wheels with aluminum rims and clincher tires with tan sidewalls.
CONDITION AND RECOMMENDED WORKS
As a vintage bike that has stood idle for quite some time, the overall frame is solid and well preserved, but it requires a quick general tune-up, lubrication, and a check of fasteners and cables before it can be ridden on the road. Aesthetically it shows a beautiful antique patina with normal light surface signs from time and use, including some small imperfections or marks on the red paint of the frame that testify to its authenticity. An ideal model for lovers of classic Italian bikes and vintage collecting.
SHIPPING AND PACKING NOTES
The lot will be packed with extreme care and shipped via courier with tracking and insurance. Note that to ensure safer shipping and to reduce the package volume, some parts of the bicycle are likely to be disassembled, such as: pedals, saddle, rims, and the handlebar.
