I am looking for aroad bike and like the look of the bianchi's. I know little about road bikes and dont wish to waste your time. I am 6'4" tall and weigh in at 18stone (ish), my current bike is a daws galaxy with a 64cm frame....reckon a 57cm is to small?

Pics would be good if you can post some up.

Is it this one?

I think th eframe size may be too small anyway...lovely bike though.

The link you put up BTFB is not the bike for sale.
57cm would be way too small for you mate.
This is the bike for sale as per above:

You'll be looking at a size 60cm frame mate.
Hope this helps

ta....it's a great looking bike, I wish i was smaller....yep...I will need at least a 60...i think bianchi do a 61cm option so that is what I will try out

 

[slow down]

Sorry for the late reply - went into hospital for foot op yesterday. It is the one in SteveB's post. Probably would be a little too small, although that said I'm six foot and feel that I'd have been happier with a 55cm but everyone's different and I know shorter riders who are happy with a 57cm.

Let me know if you try anything out and you think 57cm would fit - where do you live?

 

[Bigtallfatbloke]

I live in Essex....I currently ride a 64cm frame galaxy... I calculated on the evans site that for a bianchi I'll need the 61. My intention is to ride a bianchi 61cm...if that is too small I will let you know.

Nice bike BTW

No problem - let me know how you get on. You won't regret getting a Bianchi though, mine is too good to be a garage ornament hence the reason for selling.

One last try - if it doesn't sell in the next week, looks like I'll be getting some raceblades ready for winter.
