FS: 2005 Bianchi Giro Road Bike 55cm, Shimano 105 Components
Up for sale is my 2005 Bianchi Giro, 55cm. I bought this bike for $700 a few months ago and have put another $500 into it since then, I am only trying to break even. It has just been tuned by Roswell Bicycles on April 30th, 2010. Besides the "Pro Tune", they also aligned the derailleur hanger, overhauled the bottom bracket, installed brand new brake cables, installed brand new tubes for the tires, serviced the cassette, and last but not least, put a brand new set of Shimano RS30 wheels on the bike, the wheels alone were $300 (wheels literally have less than 80 miles on them). I have receipts totaling $500 for all of this work. The bike is beautiful and has full Shimano 105 components. I will also include my Cateye Enduro 8 bike computer and my Shimano SPD shoes, size 45. I wear a 10.5 in normal shoes and these fit me perfectly.
The ONLY thing this bike needs is some new tires in the near future, the current tires are fine for now but I wouldn't go on any long rides with them, they're showing some wear. Other than that this bike is in tip top shape and needs absolutely nothing.
When I bought the bike it had ALX 320 wheelset on it, but the rear axle was broken (front wheel is still in great shape). When I found out the rear axle was broken, I decided to upgrade to the Shimano RS30's. You can have the ALX 320 wheelset for free. If you can find the parts, you could fix the rear wheel and sell them for a profit or use them as a backup set.
I have only ridden it 100 miles since I got it in March 2010, I just don't have the time to enjoy it like I thought I would.
Feel free to contact me to come check out the bike, I commute to Atlanta from Roswell daily so I am pretty flexible on meeting up wherever convenient.
Asking $1,000.
