It did not have one red and one yellow wheel, I however am not postitive about the handle bars, but do not believe that they were green

I had a navy blue Bianchi Iseo stolen from in front of my apartment a few weeks ago. I also had a tip from a craigslist post that it was seen at the swaporama, we went down there and were completely appalled and sickened by the gross amounts of stolen property, but didn't see my bike that day. If you ever see a navy bianchi iseo, I would be eternally grateful if you let me know, and I definitely want to help out the next time you sweep the flea market. 773-909-3236
