Bianchi Road Bikes

928 L'UNA/Record

If you want a carbon fiber road bike that will stand out from every other carbon fiber bike out there, the L'Una is for you. The white carbon is nothing less than magnificent. Paired with white carbon handlebars, stem, and seatpost, the pearly-white frameset will make you the envy of your ride buddies. Add a little Campy Record and you've got a bike that seems like a giveaway at $5700.

928 Carbon Lugged/Chorus

Fast and reliable thanks to this new-for-2005 lugged frame in UHM/IM High-Modulus carbon fiber, astounding for the compactness of the rear stays, the special 3K Carbon Woven finish and for enviable overall performance. Campy Chorus with Zonda wheels. $4700.

Simply fantastic!

Also available as frameset.

928 Carbon/Centaur

This startlingly beautiful gold and nude carbon bike looks good enough to hang on your wall, but we'd recommend actually riding it. Mega Pro Evolution downtube ensures maximum torsional and lateral stiffness. Affordable Campagnolo Centaur and Scirocco wheels. $3250.

Also available as frameset.

928 Carbon/Veloce

Carbon frame meets Italian components for little more than the price of a Fuji. How cool is that? Campagnolo Veloce and Vento wheels. $2400. Also available as a frameset.

FC Alu/Carbon Chorus

The thrill of stomping on the pedals to make it the last hundred meters to the finish line--whether it's a sprinter's stage at the Tour or the city limit sign on the weekly group ride, this bike will do it. Chorus group with Zonda wheels. $4200. Also available as a frameset.

FC Alu/Carbon Centaur

Same frame as it's Chorus equipped big brother, just with a more affordable Centaur group and Scirocco wheelset. $3600.

1885 Hydroformed Aluminum

Hydroforming is a technology that allows custom shaping of aluminum tubing without sacrificing overall strength of wall thickness. That means you can make tubes that are light, strong, and resistant to twisting. Plus it looks cool and has carbon stays. Built with Chorus components and Scirocco wheels. $3400.

Pinella Centaur

The classic feel of steel meets top-end technology. Triple butted tubes translate into a super-light, super-responsive ride. Structural foam injected around the bottom bracket enhances the pateral stiffness of the bike. You would be hard-pressed to find a nicer steel frame without getting it custom made. Campagnolo Centaur components and Scirocco wheels. $2900.

FG Lite

Think aluminum is too heavy? Well, it's not. But now it's even lighter. Extreme triple-butted aluminum is made possible by alloying it with zinc and magnesium. Available as a frameset only with Bianchi's full carbon fork. So, build it up however your heart desires. $1800

S9 Matta Titanium Lite

The merger of 3/2.5 titanium with carbon fiber seatstays marks one of the highlights of the 2005 Bianchi road line. Not only is it gorgeous, but it's also comfortable. Available as a frameset only. $2400

San Lorenzo

One of the lightest bikes in the line, and faster than Flo's red Camaro SS. The thin-walled, variable-shaped, triple-butted Scandium aluminum alloy tubing delivers a phenomenal ride. If you're one who prefers the classic look and fit of a true road racing bike with a horizontal top tube, the San Lorenzo is the ticket. DuraAce group, Mavic/Vittoria wheels contribute to one fast ride. Race-ready and anxious to motor. $3500

Also available as frameset.

Virata

Take the combination of Dedacciai EOM tubing and their Black Tail/Black Box integrated carbon rear end, add the famous Bianchi geometry, a new Ultegra 20 or 30-speed group, some Mavic wheels, and you have one helluva sweet riding super-lightweight hot rod road bike. We couldn't make enough of them in 2004, after the magazines discovered how fun it is to ride something truly different. A 55cm bike weighs under 19 pounds. $2300

Also available as frameset.

Vigorelli

Same great frame as Veloce, Imola and Eros. The Vigorelli gets the new 30-speed Ultegra group for 2005. Named after the famous velodrome in Milano, this has been the choice of recreational riders wanting wide hill-climbing gears and the famous ride of Bianchi steel. $1900

San Mateo

The San Mateo is a new model for 2005. The same great aluminum/carbon frame as the Giro and Alfana, but with a race-ready Campagnolo 20-speed Veloce group. In prehistoric times, an affordable, fast, race bike like this was called a "boy racer"; but this bike is for all sizes, genders and types of riders. 9 sizes, starting at 44cm. $1700

Veloce

Campagnolo's best value component group takes this 30-speed road bike a step up from the Eros. Vento wheels make it fast, and the lightweight steel frame makes it smooth. $1700

Giro

For 2005, the Giro gets a Bianchi Reparto Corse SL3/Carbon frame: double-butted, special profile aluminum with bump-soaking carbon rear stays. Wide gearing and fast Mavic wheels make this a great all-around entry racer or hill climber, depending on whether you opt for the 18-speed version or the 27-speed set-up. $1600

Also available in Celeste; available as frameset; available with 44cm frame.

Imola

The Imola is a more affordable Vigorelli, without sacrificing the zing of our Reynolds 631 frame. The Shimano 105 group has 3 less gears than the new Ultegra, but you proabably would be hard pressed to figure out which three. We upgraded the wheels for a faster trip over the hills and dales. $1400

Eros

One of the most popular Bianchi road bikes for longer than most companies have been making bikes. Bianchi understands how to design a bike with the fine ride of lightweight steel, and the Eros exemplifies that ride. $1300

Eros Donna

Donna is "woman" in Italian. The Eros Donna continues to be the overwhelming choice of smaller women, with a specially designed frame geometry to accomodate 700C wheels. Shorter cranks, and narrower handlebars with a shallower drop. $1250

Brava

A Bianchi is a Bianchi is a Bianchi, from $700 to $7000. Their entry-level road bike has the unmistakable feel that all their bikes have, which is to say that when you get on it you will understand the benefits of 120 years of bike designing. Wide gearing, a carbon fiber fork and a comfortable CrMo frame will soak up the miles. $720

Castro Valley

A new model for 2005, this is the bike for the commuter who likes to ride in the fast lane. Fully equipped for commuting, straight out of the box. Same proven frame as the Volpe. 9 speed Shimano Tiagra drive train. Shimano canti brakes. Dynamo-driven headlight with 3 watt, 12 volt bulb. Fenders and rack mounts. Tires with 3M reflective sidewall stripe make wheel reflectors unnecessary. $800
