My only and latest purchase (after 13 yes without riding) it's finally arrived.
I couldn't sleep for it. So happy to ride again on a vintage (bit beat up) Bianchi Sprint S!
Any suggestions/tips for a newbie are truly appreciated.
Ps. Bike it's not finished

Hope you cleaned the parts before putting the bike together. You had a great opportunity to do it. Second thing, if you are not a good mechanic for bikes, take it to the lbs for a complete service. It is an old bike so you would be good to know all is fine.
Am I tripping, or are you missing your headset locknut?
For a moment I was worried you would turn it into a fixie
Replace that rear derailleur with a vintage Suntour Cyclone (someone replaced yours with a shitty one). It will be period correct, they are cheap to buy, but very well made and will shift better than a Campagnolo Super Record of the same time.
Masi wheels, GPM hubs sorry
that how you colour a bike frame!
