Bianchi 1885 Alu/Carbon Help

[YellowV2]

Looking at an Bianchi 1885 Alu Hydro Carbon, 2007, it has Fulcrum 5 wheelset, Veloce chainset & front mech. rest of groupset is Centaur. Is this a standard spec for this bike, as I can only find Veloce groupsets and khamsin wheels or Shimano group and wheels.
Any advice.

The Fulcrum 5's are a bit better than the Khamsins (same maker -slightly different spec) and the Centaur bits will only be ever so slightly inferior to a full Veloce groupset - so no worries on that score.

I'm sure someone on the forum has this bike and can let you know about the frame.

Ok thanks, I am now really confused as I always understood Centaur to be higher spec than Veloce!

Sorry Yellow -got them the wrong way around!!! - either way the difference between the two sets is pretty minimal.
