The Bike details
Description
This one came home in 2017.
A Bianchi in its legendary Celeste paintwork is already a masterpiece, but the GB-MG team edition is a true holy grail for 90s cycling fans. It perfectly captures an era of aggressive racing and pure Italian style, instantly recognizable with that iconic blue-green hue contrasting with the team’s bold sponsors.
The frame is crafted from premium Columbus TSX tubing, famous for its internal helical reinforcements that made it stiff enough for the powerful classics riders of the peloton while retaining that sublime, comfortable ride quality that high-end steel is known for.
Out on the road, it is a magnificent piece of cycling history. It delivers that timeless, smooth, and planted feel that only a top-tier Italian steel frame can provide, turning heads on every single ride.
