Help identifying a vintage Bianchi Frame!
Hey guys.
I recently bought a bianchi frame and i'm trying to build a fixed gear bike with it. Currently i'm stuck on what fork i should get and i looked into buying a vintage bianchi fork, the problem is, i don't know which model my bianchi frame is.
Here are two forks on ebay atm:
Bianchi Dedacciai Forks Celeste Green Vintage Road CR MO | eBay
Bianchi Celeste Fork 1" Threadless VGC | eBay
Would be awesome if someone knew some good alternatives to the original fork as well
Thanks

Mid 1980s. If that Columbus decal says something like Tre Tube Rinforzati (double-butted main triangle), then you have a good mid-quality frame comparable to mine (see signature). If you must do the FG thing, do not cut off the derailleur tab and other brazed-on fitments, in case you or anyone else ever wants to put gears back on it after this fixie fad fades.

I think i might have found the year my bike is from
bulgier.net - /pics/bike/catalogs/Bianchi-88/
The super leggera has the same stickers as my frame.
