Edoardo Bianchi S.p.A., commonly known as Bianchi ([ˈbjaŋki]) is the world's oldest bicycle manufacturing company in existence, having pioneered the use of equal-sized wheels with pneumatic rubber tires. The company was founded in Italy in 1885 and in addition to bicycles it produced motorcycles from 1897 to 1967. I was told that this frameset is made by Gino Milani for Bianchi. Gino Milani, built for many builders including Colner, Chiorda, Bianchi, Bottechia, Leri, Pinarello, Battaglin, Colnago, and Moser. Gino passed away in 1990. May he rest in paradise. . This Bianchi pista used to belong to Swiss pro cyclist Carolina Luthi . https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolina_Lüthi I spoke with her through email contact where she confirmed she used the frame in the 6day cycling events. And for sponsorship reasons Bianchi painted the frame in pearlescent white. For confirmation of her email, you can see the last picture attached in this album. . 54cm center center 55,5 cm center top 54cm top tube
