Brand: Bianchi

Aero carbon road frame introduced by Bianchi in autumn 2017, below the Oltre models in the racing range but built for speed. Tube profiles, fork and seatstays draw on the wind-tunnel work done for the Aquila CV time trial bike, and the aero seatpost with its hidden clamp offers 20 mm of setback adjustment. Press Fit 86.5 x 41 mm bottom bracket, internal cable routing, carbon dropouts with metal inserts and a 1.4" to 1 1/8" tapered head tube; Bianchi quotes 1,100 g for the bare frame in size 55 and 370 g for the fork. Its compact geometry makes it usable for triathlon with nothing more than clip-on bars.
