Celeste bikes that are not Bianchi

Mrs. Joe thinks she might like to have her Serotta HSG, currently white with red accents, painted Celeste. A search of the General Discussion and Custom Bikes forums yields few examples that are not Bianchi.

Does anyone have pics of non-Bianchi bikes using a Celeste paint scheme?

A lot of Rock Lobsters are pretty close to celeste.

A little Celeste goes a long way. A recent change in honor of a Bianchi I owned many moons ago.

This is my favorite from David Kirk's website

When I did a repaint a few months ago, I almost went with this...

Trek project one will make you anything you want. Saw a Celeste Madone, confusing.

80’s steel Treks would use that color.

I added some Celeste to my bike in honor of my old Bianchi that was squashed by a car.

I've wondered this too. Specialized seems to be a large contributor to 'celeste theft' too.

Here’s one that I am contemplating buying from a guy locally. It’s A warranty replacement frame - never built up. The one thing I don’t love is that it IS Celeste and not a bianchi... I’m still on the fence about it. Has a Reynolds carbon fork with it, and I have a 10 speed Sram red group that would go on it. And I need to figure out wheels. Maybe a new set... please talk me into or out of this build. I’m considering other frames of course... (and entertaining ideas if anyone has anything).
