You need to post some pics.
You need to have 10 posts to have pictures.
There is another way , but I do not know how

The mix of Suntour, Modolo, and Ofmega components suggests it is at least real. That was normal spec for Bianchis back then. But a lot more information on the bike is needed for anyone here to be able to give you any advice on it.

Does it look anything like this? Its an 89 CdI that I bought for $400. Mostly all original and not many miles on it and its a mix of Gipiemme, Omega, Modolo, and Sunotur.

It sounds like a late 198os Trofeo or Brava. Serial number? Model of SunTour derailleurs? We'll still need photos to determine the value, as cosmetic and mechanical condition are the biggest factors. Ignore the forum warnings about a 10 post limit. Photos will not attach to a post but they will upload to a gallery album under your user name, where members can view them.
