Where's the rest? What did you buy?

 

Thought you'd never ask :blush:

 

Great ride but have a problem with movement on the seatpost clamp after just 2 outings. Seems the clamp is somehow coming lose where it is attached to the frame.

Whats the weight and specs ? Seems like you have an EPS mix. I'm jealous in a good way. May you have many happy miles and a huge grin on your face everytime you swing your leg over the top tube.

Just over 7kgs with peddles and EPS Record.

 

Thanks bud. Love the ride!

My New Bianchi :)

 

Really nice and the right wheels and components too. That thing under your seat needs to go though. How tall are you and what size frame is that? Your setup looks out of sorts.

Thanks Cippo,

Ya i agree that the saddle bag is not ideal.

I am 180cm and the frame is a 55cm,

I just had a setup done with the guys at Cycle fit and the bike feels good :)

The saddle height and handlebar looks good but somehow seems out of sync with frame. I'm 1.85 and had a 57cm, effectively a large. Just my opinion but I think frame is too small considering your height.

I see what you mean. That seat post must be very close to it's limits. Seems extended very far. And this is what I don't get with frame sizing. My 55cm Infinito seat post is extended that far and frame was adjudged to be "almost too small" with the bike fit. I'm 178cm.

I guess it must be leg length and stuff coming into play.

 

But indeed very lekker bike TLK. Certainly a looker and if it feels good, all's good. Happy cycling!

Hi all, which shop in the Jo'burg area is best for buying a Bianchi. I want one, even if it is a pre-loved one. Thank you.

Think they're agents for Bianchi but they can advise who the dealers are.
