Description
Probably one of the finest and most beautiful steel racing bicycles ever produced, the Bianchi Specialissima X4 Argentin is a limited edition of the famous Bianchi Specialissima model. Bianchi produced the Specialissima X4 for six years between 1986 and 1991, as a development of the "Centenario 1985" model. It was named after Moreno Argentin, the professional rider of the Sammontana Bianchi team who won Liège-Bastogne-Liège and the World Championship in 1986 on a Bianchi X4 with this "black-celeste-livery".
This Bianchi Specialissima X4 Argentin (serial no. CE5957) dates back to 1987 and is in original condition – with a little "patina" gained over the years. The superb Columbus SLX frameset is fully equipped with a Campagnolo C-Record groupset with iconic "Cobalto brakes" and pantographed parts.
Beside that, the main features of this Bianchi Specialissima X4 Argentin are:
- the rounded style top eye joint with the pantographed writing “Bianchi” in a gold coloured paint
- the brake square bridge with the pantographed writing "Bianchi"
- the internally routed rear derailleur cable
- the engraved head tube
Thoroughly checked in our workshop. An evergreen of glorious cycling history.
