Subject: [CR]FS: 53/54cm Bianchi SLX frame, fork, and Campy headset

This Bianchi frame measures 53.5cm from the center of the bottom bracket to the center of the top tube, or 54.5cm from the center of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube, with a 54cm top tube.

This Bianchi frame looks to be fully chromed underneath the beautiful and world-famous Bianchi Celeste metallic paint. This fully lugged frame was made in Italy of high-end Columbus SLX steel tubing. It has "Bianchi" and the Bianchi emblem engraved on the top of the fork crown of this 1" threaded fork.

This frame has braze-on downtube shifter bosses, a pump peg, two sets of water bottle mounts, rear brake cable housing eyelets on the top of the top tube, horizontal rear dropouts that measure 128mm wide with threaded eyelets on the rear Gipiemme dropouts, and a braze-on front derailleur tab. This frameset comes with a rough Campagnolo headset already installed. An Italian bottom bracket spins in by hand...very clean and smooth threads!

There are some paint chips on this frame that show the chromed frame underneath. One of the Bianchi decals is missing on the right side of the seat tube, and the one on the left side of the down tube is missing also (they started to peel as happens with many Italian frames and they were removed). There are Campagnolo decals on both chainstays (they are peeling up some also) and on the headtube. There are Bianchi decals on the top of the seat stays and left side bottom bracket shell. The chrome on the right chainstay is in very good condition and there are no dents on the bike. All of the frame tubes and fork legs have been treated with Boeshield T-9 rust prevention spray.
