There is only one color in cycling that stops people cold. Bianchi's legendary celeste — that unmistakable pale mint-green — has graced world championship bikes for over a century, and this 1986–87 Sport SX wears it flawlessly. This is the bike that turns heads at every coffee stop and makes other cyclists ask questions. Original paint, original components, original soul. The Edoardo Bianchi eagle crest badge on the head tube is intact and gorgeous. This is not a wall hanger — it's a rideable piece of Italian cycling history.
The frame is double-butted Cr-Mo steel — the material that serious cyclists mean when they say "steel is real." It won't punish you on a long ride the way aluminum does. Instead it delivers that legendary responsive, springy feel that absorbs road buzz and rewards you mile after mile. Riders who have made the switch from modern carbon or aluminum to quality vintage steel frequently say they'll never go back. This is that bike.
