That’s not a Bianchi, that’s probably a GT with a questionable disc brake conversion. Maybe I’d build it, maybe I’d ride it, but I wouldn’t sell it and let someone else ride it

The brakes worry me, especially with no brace added to the rear.

This thing is going to kill you but maybe it’s worth riding it.

This isn’t a Bianchi, and that disc brake conversion is poorly done and dangerous.

Nope them disc brakes look a bit dodgy if was cheap may take a punt on it for a laugh but wouldn’t spend money on it

Very poor disc brake converted GT. I wouldn’t be surprised if the metalworking compromised the frame too much to even make it worth either finishing the metalwork to make the disc conversion worthwhile or converting back to rim brakes
I also don’t have much faith in any of the components being worth anything despite being somewhat new.
$20.

They were happy to spend time/money on dodgy welding and using hydro disc brakes, but couldn’t spend out at least on a decent budget saddle or even cable Management it seems

800EUR is too much for a badly done flip of this bike.
I prefer that you set a ceiling of where you should start, like less than 200EUR.

Is it worth 800€?

Disc conversion is questionable, i would have added some braces
