Vintage Bianchi Superset Bike for Sale
This bike is in great/excellent condition, featuring a brand new front rim, fresh tire tread, and new cables as of fall 2023. It includes standard bike pedals. My wife, who is 5'5", used this bike primarily for leisure rides. While I have the serial number, I can't pinpoint the exact year it was manufactured, though we know it’s from the 1980s. I reached out to Bianchi for more information, but they were unable to provide any details due to its age, instead directing me to some articles for reference. One notable source I found was Sheldon Brown, a respected American cyclist and mechanic, who noted that “in the 1980s, Bianchi's "Superset" design featured heavier-gauge down tubes and chainstays, paired with lighter upper frame components to enhance drivetrain stiffness, all while utilizing standard diameter round tubing for compatibility with standard lugs.”

I've thoroughly cleaned the bike, inflated the tires, and it's ready for a ride. This Bianchi Superset offers a smooth riding experience, and while it does have a few minor scuffs from normal use (please see photos), it has been well cared for and comes from a clean, maintained home.
