Bianchi

Bianchi — bikes built to last

Bianchi was founded in 1885 in Italy. Originally based in Milan, it began with Edoardo Bianchi and has subsequently been an influence in the world of cycling for 130 years. The brand has the distinction of being the oldest bike company in the world. This fame comes from the fact that they were the company to start pioneering the use of same size wheels on a bike as well as implementing the pneumatic rubber tyre. For a brief period, the company also created motorbikes, but today they focus solely on bicycles.

Quality and Style from Bianchi

Bianchi's bike range is noted for the fact that their bikes are often used by some of the greatest riders. In fact, the brand has been at the heart of cycling for decades, thanks to its strong commitment to offering nothing but the best. The brand also promises to deliver and create products as true artisans, coupling this with a distinguished bike design oozing style.

Another feature that makes this brand stand out is that they offer high-end bikes as well as those in the medium-level range, and even budget-minded bikes. This means that anyone looking for a quality bike can get the perfect one. On top of that, Bianchi also creates bikes to fit into a wide range of biking categories and uses. Bianchi's product range includes a number of different bicycle types, such as road , racing, triathalon, MTB, gravel and even e-bikes.

Bianchi Bike Design

When designing their bikes, the company takes the time to create a strong frame as well as matching quality components into the structure so that the bike works from all aspects. The company have continued to move with the times in their designs too, offering new and improved bikes and constantly innovating.

Thanks to the comprehensive Bianchi Lab, all Bianchi bikes come with a solid frame — the company believes this is the heart of the bike. Each frame is rendered in 3D before the design is finalised. Rapid prototyping and lab testing are performed to ensure optimum performance. The final touch is that each bike is hand-painted by craftsmen, even going so far as to create unique colour schemes for star cyclists. As if this wasn't enough, there's no factory line production here; each bike is assembled by one person, making each bike completely unique.

Innovative and Environmentally-Friendly Bikes

In recent times, the e-bike has come to the fore, with the company partnering with a growing community of forward-thinkers to provide even better bikes. Bianchi e-bikes are designed to offer extra assistance during the pedal action, giving a power assist that elevates the normal pedal stroke up to 25 km per hour. Better still, these innovative bikes give the rider the option to choose the level of assistance and thus can help riders achieve their goals in a manageable way.

Other innovations include the Bianchi CV, an integrated system that removes 80% of the vibrations caused by cycling on the road. A unique combination of materials has been added to the carbon frames of the Bianchi bikes to make this possible.
