My newish bike

[shogun12345]

My first road bike. Bought it about 2 months ago from Evans. Done about 180 miles on it. I know its not alot but its more than I did on my old MTB

Bianchi Via Nirone Alu/Carbon Veloce 2008 to be exact

Need to highten the seat a little, seems to be slipping. Plus it needs a good clean cause of farmers leaving muck on the road which mixed with some rain

Looks smart !

 

[shogun12345]

That is a very nice bike.What size? and did you miss the Chelsea goal on telly last night?Seems to be in the way of the screen.

 

[shogun12345]

Thanks. its size 55 which seems to fit me perfectly. tv's on the otherside of the room so no i didn't miss it because of that. what was the final score? forgot to watch the match

Bianchis are really lovely bikes - impractical for me, but I can dream of owning one

The LBS I bought my Giant from stocks them, and quite often I was tempted to say "hang the expense, and need for full guards, I'll get wet and go hungry to ride that..."

 

[shogun12345]

yeah they are beautiful bikes. thats what attracted me to them in the first place. just a shame it keeps getting dirty. plus since, at the same time i bought it, i started to use clipless pedals so it now has a few scrapes on the forks and such. doesn't really make any difference to the ride but when you pay so much for something that is so stunning and it gets damaged, its like the worst thing to ever happen to you

Looks great, unique baby blue sorta colour. You struggle to find a matching jersey

Yeah I know lol. My bright yellow saunier duval jersey just does not work atall opted for a discovery jersey instead. being black it seems to work

I like my Bianchi. I have a 2006 Via Nirone Alu/Carbon Veloce as my 2nd best bike. Its not celeste though but blue, white, silver and bare carbon forks and seatstays. Looks really smart IMO

Very nice, being able to say one owns a Bianchi has a 'certain' cache, no! Plus it benefits from having lovely Campy gears.

Yeah gotta love a good old set of campagnolo gears. Soooooooo much better than shimano plus just that little bit "cooler"

Its a bit bright for me, but that just me; it looks a good bike. As people say you can't go wrong with Bianchi, I've one too BTW (C2C 928 Veloce)
