bianchi frame

This is my bianchi castro valley frame. I stripped all the parts (except for the headset) off of it this weekend to take a good long look at just the frame. I'm trying to decide what to do with it. On the one hand I could just build it back up (after replacing the bottom bracket and a few other parts). Or I could get it sandblasted and repainted. Or I could do neither and just sell it.

Nice features of this frame. Lots and lots of brazeons. Clearance for great big tires. I can fit 42mm tires w/o fenders or 35mm w/fenders.

 

Original specs: www.bianchiusa.com/06-bicycles/06-specialty/06-castro-val... - except the rims I have on it are better - dt-swiss, hand built wheels instead of the alex-ace machine-builts.
