Vintage Bianchi Road Bike Build and Ride
Subscribe:    / bikeituk  

This retro Bianchi road bike was kindly donated to me when I discovered a secret bicycle collection I had to share at the bicycle shop Life on Wheels.
I have personally been after a vintage Bianchi bicycle for some time and I could not believe it when Mitch the owner kindly gifted the bike to me.

The video shows this stunning Italian bicycle being completely stripped down, cleaned polished and repainted, before being built back up like new. This Bianchi really has been a dream bike build for me and taking it out on the road for a ride was a dream come true. This is one bicycle that will be keeping and adding to my own personal bicycle collection.

The video shows the full bike restoration, including the build and an epic ride. Plus hints, tips and help with your own projects along the way.
Watch as this Bianchi road bike is completely restored to like new condition.
