A neighbor of mine recently received a possible jem...
it's a ladies 26" Bianchi Strada Lx 10 speed (yeah, it's an oldie).
Overall, it appears to be in pretty decent condition, although
the sidewalls of the lires look like crap, and the brakes are in
desperate need of some TLC. There are a couple of things
that are a tad different...on the seatpost, just below the seat,
therer's a marking of Cr-Mo, which leads me to believe that
the frame may be Chrome Molly (that's my guess anyway),
and on the downtube, just behind the fork is a decal which
reads Campion del Mondo 1986 - 1987 Colorado Springs.
Other than that, it appears to be a standard old school 10 speed.
Question is...Is this truely a jem of a find (it was given to
my neighbor)??
