Great build...

Sort the bars out(shorten) and get full black tyres

I hate those big lairy decals too

You know how those dutch bike are pretty much identical to each other in Holland?

same go to those Bianchi in the State.

don't chop the bars though, thats a lovely length imo.

that awful Cannondale track.

my forks are very similar to those and i ride my bike pretty hard, i reckon those are the best looking forks you can get really

plus the cannondale track is far from awful

....lovely length for a freeride bike. i'd lob an inch off each end. and get black tires/black straps. and i do my best to get rid of the bianchi logo on the fork. the only reason i'm even saying anything is because normally i hate those bikes, but that one is doing well.

fixed

a bit scuffed but very nice i think

That's a Tandem stem, not a normal one, innit?

I reckon you'd sheer that thing clean off if you put any pressure on it... 1 bolt ahead stems don't sit well with me

I reckon you'd sheer that thing clean off if you put any pressure on it..

Not many stokers haul on the bars that hard.

big lairy bianchi decals are essential but too much rear wheel clearence

More clearance is the new tight, after Look went to the wind tunnel and showed that the viscous drag caused by running the tyre very close to the tube cut out actually sucked up more power than was saved by the flow smoothing effect of ultra-close clearance.

i love pista concepts, actually lust after them, hopefully one day soon will have enough of the queens faces to buy one!

you can't win these days. how's a brother gonna get to the closing sale in time if his tight clearances are now sucking up power! jeez. although those 60cm riser bars probably weren't providing any help in the aero department.

nice pista ^

shweeeeeeeeeeet

They're not expensive, just hard to get hold of, US market only

blb chatted with bianchi at the eurobike to bring the new series to europe

^ noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-(

Fucking BLB piss me right off. Absolute rip-off merchants.

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssss!!!!!!
sorry man, i really like yours btw.

Talking of Eurobike . . . Lots of nice pics HERE from when the FGL boys were there.

Like this:

and this:

Abject De Rosa chain tension fail methinks. Shame - so near and yet so far.

Yup, only just noticed that too. plust the two cable guides . . . apart from that, pretty lovely

The one on the De Rosa website doesn't have the cable guides.
Perhaps the sample on Eurobike had an older prototype frame.
Or the pic on the website is the result of smart photoshopping. It has bottle bosses and brake drillings F&R though :-(

The front of the saddle just isn't right for the bike either - cut off like an Afghan election-goer's nose.
