this is a ‘90 or ‘91 model, and few models higher in the food chain the the bike you’re comparing it to

I simply meant that there seems to be no resemblance between them, as if my bike is completely different. Not saying I have a poor quality ride, just "different", especially when comparing the forks. If both bikes came without stickers I'd never have guessed miner was Bianchi - I'd have said Schwinn!

How much for the pickup? Bike looks like a pretty nice deal, though, for someone who can deal with the rust.

How come this thread doesn’t get a sticky? Seems like it would make a lot of sense. Given it’s age and popularity I’m guessing this has been discussed and resolved already?

It gets posted to frequently enough that it stays near the top of the C&V section pretty-much every day. Stickies are more appropriate for threads that sometimes get quiet enough to fall down a page or two, but have lasting / permanent informational value.
