I stand corrected on the brakes being wrong, but that raises a couple of questions: Why are the front brake shoes ALL the way out in their slots? I've never seen a facory bike like that. When did the levers with the '60s '70s style Universal logo gum hoods and adjusting barrels seen on the Bianchi first appear? Again, I can't recall seeing that style of lever on such an old bike as OE before.

Thanks in advance,
