Yes, this looks like 80's stuff, after Legano was bought by Bianchi. No evidence of the unique Legnano seat binder or the knight headbadge. Basically a mid-range Bianchi with Legnano decals. Not the trademark Legnano green either. Most here have more interest in the 60's/ early 70's Legnanos before they were bought out, which still exhibited the unique Legnano faetures.

I asked the owner about it. He said "Seat tube as "I measured" 55.245 cm top post 54.61cm, Made around 80', you get the tires and rims they are "sew ups", decals are not cleared over, no metal damage, and color is wine to me seems to deep to be any shade of red"

A little big for me (I need 54cm c to c).He forgot to tell me standover height. But it still interests me. Is this a midline Legnano of this period? - Nobody else mentioned it in any post I have read so it must not be that exciting.(Does it have to be a 69's to earlier 70's period Legnano to get noticed?)
