Doug -

Your Bianchi is da bomb, as they say in the vernacular.  I would love
to use this color for the Roadeo I have on order, but can't find Imron
03 in the book.  Is it still available?

 I used Imron #44403 to paint a Bianchi in the 50s/60s style.  See the
 pics on Jim's Current Classics web site:

 There's a link to an Imroncolorchart on Eric Norris' Campy Only web site:

 Hope this helps.  Good luck!

  much darker and often much greener, I believe. They are obviously
  Bianchis to riders of the past decade because of thatcolor. I want
  the old style pale blue, because I like it better and also because I
  don't want it to say Bianchi! to riders of the current era.

  Can anyone advise?

  Thanks!

I am pleased to have a Roadeo on order and need to let the Rivendell
folks know the Imron color. I am in the San Diego area. Can anyone
suggest somewhere I can walk into to see an Imron color book or chart?
