i'm selling mine. i'm posting a new thread yes, because a ridiculously unusual size. i know some of you are looking for bikes for your girlfriends, who are short. BUY THIS BIKE. its a rare frame too.
i know you've seen that itty bitty bianchi [ dubbed by stilline. ] and now its for sale.
44cm 1988 Bianchi Sport SX in celeste. ( steel frame & fork. )
Shimano Exage Sport: rear & front derailler, brakes, cranks
700c rear wheel / 24" front wheel.
Shimano 600 downtube shifters
New headset
Newish Origin 8 stem ( also have a Nitto technomic stem that fits this bike if you want something more upright. )
Theres some nicks and scratches from both me and the previous owner [ I'm the second owner. ], but no dents or damage to the frame besides general wear & tear.
Features a Terry styled geometry geared towards short women. Never seen another Bianchi with this frame though. Fork was made for the 24" wheel and will not fit a larger one.
photos, that are kind of older. haven't had a chance to take new ones, but im assuming most of you have seen this bike because its pretty ridiculous looking.

photo 2 -- day i bought it.

if you cut your legs at the knees, theres a small possibility. i think you should try that out.

I wonder how it would feel to ride something so small.

too bad i'm not impt enough for you to build me something like that, Jeff. haha.
anyway, sold this bike last night to a 4'11" woman in venice. she fit this bike better than i ever did, as i towered over the stem/headtube.

is it really sad that i've already gotten a new frameset? i got measured for this one! it actually fits me perfectly, no more ridiculous front wheel business.

Hey TiniCities! Do you still have that bike???? I may have a looker/buyer she'll need to see if it fits (I think it will) and possibly make an offer. Email me! erial [at] modernexploits [dot] net.
