BIANCHI Specialissima X3 – Campagnolo Super Record. Bianchi is the world’s oldest still existing bicycle company, founded in 1885 by Eduardo Bianchi in Milan, Italy. There is no doubt that Bianchi has been a pioneer in the development of bicycles from the very beginning. In 1895, they invented equal wheels with pneumatic rubber tires, the first bicycle in history to feature a universal joint transmission in 1901 and a front brake system in 1913. Throughout Bianchi’s 130-year history, the Specialissima name has represented the flagship collection of Italian legend road machines. The “Specialissima” was introduced in the late 1950s as the successor to the famous “Campione del mondo” model and remains the top model of Bianchi up to this day. Currently, the first-ever Specialissima Disc is coming out for the 2021 season. Some say the Bianchi X3 and X4 is the perfect steel racing bike, best ever made. For a dedicated Bianchi collector, the Bianchi X3 is high on the list of must-have bikes. Bianchi produced the X3 for a short time, from 1982-85, and is very similar to the legendary “Centenario 1985″. Our X3 is constructed from Columbus SLX steel tubing, known to be the best choice for professional cyclists. A few important details that make the X3 so exclusive and desirable. Bianchi lettering engraved on the so-called “sloped” chrome fork crown. A special set of cast joints dedicated to the Bianchi Specialissima X3 model. Dedicated “V” shaped brake bridge with “Bianchi” pantograph on both sides. Seatstays in aero shape, flattened at the ends with “Bianchi” pantograph. Incredibly rare “Bianchi Aero Prototype” seatpost dedicated to this model. We are proud to present this top-of-the-range Bianchi racing machine, the Specialissima X3, which dates back to 1983 and remains in completely original condition. It is by all means a kind of time capsule for road bikes. This is one of the best versions of the Bianchi X3, very similar to the collector’s Bianchi Centenario that was released in 1985. The offered specimen is made of excellent Columbus SLX tubing and built on a special edition of the Campagnolo Super Record group of equipment with pantographs and Bianchi engravings on the stem, brakes, crank, shifters, levers, seatpost etc. It is also worth paying special attention to the seatposts in this model because it is one of a kind – Incredibly rare, developed with Campagnolo “Bianchi Aero Prototype” seatpost dedicated to the X3. To sum up, we have an absolutely cult machine here and highly collectible! An unusual rarity, ready to decorate your collection or take part in any classic L’Eroica race. 56cm -seat tube (c-t): 56 cm -top tube (c-c): 55 cm -headset tube: 14.8 cm -standover: 81 cm.
