More than anything it was just to have something different. When the chosen ride becomes the weak link, then I’ll probably look at it differently. Most likely that won’t ever be the case so I just buy what I want. It’s got plenty of clearance, comfortable geometry and lite enough. And bonus, I’ve never noticed another one around here.
Just wanted to post an updated so people can have an idea of real world tire clearance on the Bianchi. Here we have a 42 resolute on Easton arc 24 wheels. This is 60 psi just after mounting and a quick 5 miles to distribute sealant.
