Older frame...worth using?

[Joe_W]

Bianchi bikes are (in general) quite nice. So it might be worth (not financially, as others have remarked) to fix it. If you like the ride: get some new-ish components (last year's or earlier stuff) and build it up. Be aware that some older bikes have different standards on stuff like bottom brackets and such.
If you want the bike and learn about bikes this is a good opportunity. Just don't let your SO find out how much you spent
