ilubinsky Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Hi, Please help me decide Bianchi Infinito Ultegra with Ksyrium Elite wheels or Specialized Expert Ultegra with Ksyrium Elite wheels. Bianchi R9 000 more
Ryinc Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 I have the bianchi and man it is a nice bike. There is also just something special that i cant explain being on a bike with so much history. 10k more though is quite a bit.

But like you said is the 10 k worth it. I have a couple of nights to sleep on it and will decide tx
Cippo Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 No contest. Has to be the Bianchi. I would go with Campag instead of Shimano though.

Longbarn Killer Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Which Specialized is it? The Roubais, Tarmac or Venge. 3 completely different bikes, with different purposes. The Infinito is more of a comfort orientated bike and is best Compared to the Roubais. Personally I believe the Bianchi is over priced. As nice as they are, I just cannot see the value in it.
WIPEOUT 1000 Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 I honestly believe that if you spend this much money, you should buy the bicycle you want. i.e. there is nothing worse than buyers remorse. By asking the question whether it's worth paying more for the Bianchi, I assume you already know which one you really want.
Patchelicious Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Both bikes are great bikes! In that price range you are not going to be buying a "bad" bike. Best advice, as always, buy the one you WANT the most.
CAAD4 Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Buy the one that talks to you, so enjoy your Bianchi and being different to all the many Spaz riders out there.
Bianchisti Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I'm on the Infinito and it's a great bike. The only thing better is my other Bianchi. Mind you I've never been on a Spez ever but if I didnt ride Bianchi it would be the Venge for me. Dying to try that bike. I'm not helping you choose. Just buy what you like most. Performance between the 2 won't matter anyway. It's all about looks, likes, price and personal preference. Enjoy!!!

Cippo Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I had an older Bianchi 928 RC with Super Record. Responsive but yet so comfortable especially on longer rides. Climbing was good even for a 7.5 kg bike. The Tarmac to my knowledge has race orientated geometry. I would go for an Ergofit to check which frame is best suited. A Bianchi even with Campag Athena 11speed on is the way to go. Remember Campag wears in, everything else wears out.
BeegMig Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 The future is green,,, Bianchi green. And after you've used and enjoyed it for many, many years without breaks, cracks or drama, you can sell it for a good price.
