Any budget tire recommendations 1.75" width or lower?

Currently looking at the kenda kwest or panaracer hp406 but looking for more options. Not sure how hard these temp Walmart knobbys are making it harder but I'm getting old, might switch out rear cog.

Help me Please!

Hi everyone,
I bought this bike at a flea market last week. I’d like to find out the exact model and roughly how much it’s worth, though I’m not planning to sell it right now.
From what I can tell, it’s made with Campagnolo components in excellent condition, the paint job is flawless, and it’s built with Columbus tubes.
I can’t find anything similar here in Hungary, so I haven’t been able to figure out at all how much it might be worth.
This is my first time using Reddit; I’m not familiar with the community, so thank you in advance for welcoming me and, above all, for everyone’s help!
Have a nice day!

My first Bianchi, would it be unholy to give it a new paint job?

I have some pearlescent blue green Honda paint left over. The factory paint on the bike is in pretty rough shape and I’m not the biggest fan of this blue anyway. I have a cool old bianchi head tube badge and thinking I’d order some decals too. Thoughts?

(UPDATE: I will be painting it and posting an update when done!)

Bianchi Sprint sizing help (50 vs 53)

Hi everyone,
I’m planning to buy a Bianchi Sprint, but since I’ll be ordering online I have to rely on sizing charts and I’m a bit stuck between size 50 and 53.
My measurements:
Height: 172 cm
Inseam: ~75–78 cm (not 100% precise, but around this range)
Body type: relatively short legs / compact proportions (I’m East Asian, so I often find “standard charts” a bit misleading)
Flexibility: good (I’ve been training consistently, so I’m comfortable in a more aggressive position)
On paper, I fall right between sizes 50 and 53 depending on the chart. Some suggest 50, others lean 53.
My concern is mainly reach and overall fit – I’d rather avoid being too stretched out and having to compensate with a very short stem if possible, but I also don’t want the bike to feel cramped.
If anyone has experience with the Sprint geometry (especially around this height range), I’d really appreciate your input on which direction makes more sense: 50 or 53.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Bianchi Specialissima CV size help needed.

Hey, any tall users of a previous specialissima out there? Moving from 59size Infinito XE and with a 189cm height and 92cm standover - wondering if I should gor for 59 as well or 57 with Specialissima? Infinito did feel sluggish and not aggressive enough lately.

Unfortunately no chance to sit on the bike. Blind buy as they say.

On a more general note - is it a good deal for 3K$ (new, with SRAM Force) to facilitate such a move to the older generation of a bike? I do love how it looks though!

1992 Forza (Cheap Marketplace find)

I got a good deal on this 1992 (probably?) Forza. I’m planning on a more thorough overhaul, but for now it’s got new tires, brake pads, and saddle. Those plus a decent clean make it road-worthy for now. I’m going to take it for a shakedown cruise this afternoon!

Bianchi Campione d’Italia

Picked up this 1980s (unsure exact year) Bianchi Campione d’Italia and I’m trying to learn more about it. I’d really appreciate help identifying the exact year range, tubing/frame material, and whether the components appear original or mixed.

I’m also trying to understand where this bike sits in Bianchi’s lineup and what its overall role was at the time.

From what I can tell:
- appears mostly original
- made in Italy
- Columbus tubing decals present
- Quattro groupset/components

I’d especially appreciate insight on:
- approximate year/model identification
- what frame tubing/material this likely uses
- whether the Quattro setup is original to this bike or a mixed build
- how this model was positioned in Bianchi’s lineup (entry-level, mid-tier, etc.)
- any details that help confirm originality or production period
- general market range for context, since pricing on these seems inconsistent

Photos are from the original Facebook Marketplace listing. It’s currently in for a full tune-up and inspection, and I can add updated photos afterward if helpful.

Thanks for any help.

Good deal oltre comp?

Got it brand new for 3800 with 105. I had another bike shop offering 6100 for a comp with Ultegra which seemed crazy.

I’m loving it. It’s my first time with electric shifting I don’t think I’d notice. It’s pretty flawless as is

Assembling at home?

Hello!

I am very close to pull the trigger on a new gravel bike, currently leaning on the 2026 via nirone 7 (https://www.bianchi.com/store/int\_EN/yvbmj-via-nirone-7-grx610-12sp-9.html)

My size is not available in my local store and they cannot order it anymore.
I found it available with a great deal in another store which would ship it to my place, but now the question: how feasible is to do the assembly myself?
I’m fairly new to the cycling world so I have 0 experience assembling bikes.

I could see how doable it is with Caynon bikes but they sell the bike with that purpose, but I’m not sure how Bianchi does it.

Let me know if you have any similar experience or could provide any guidance!

So close to finishing this build. I think I want to build up a higher tier Bianchi next.
