That post of mine should have gone on the "buying" or "noob" thread, sorry about that.

yeah, the 2010 line is probably the dopest of the newer Bianchi colorways/looks.

Unfortunately I have a 2009.

The 2010 version of my model looks so much nicer (more like the 928 SL). I would be more T_T but I rated looks/brand pretty low on my WANT priorities.

only if you put immense risers on it though, maybe ape hangers. most fixie d-bags have never spent more than 10 seconds in the drops.

yeah I used to lol heartily at a buddy of mine (named kr1s k1ng for real) who spent bank on fancy nitto track drops (deep) and always rode exclusively with his hands at the stem

Not sure if I like the current trend for contrasting colours inside the triangles and on the front of the down tube.

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 13:20 (fourteen years ago) link

I dunno, I kinda like the trend---contrast on the inside of the fork blades looks dope imo

guys I am in the lustiest bike shop I have ever been to (the angry catfish)

sitting in the window inches away from the counter (it's a coffeeshop too) are two redonk bmc frames, and there's colnagos littering the place. cosmic wheelsets on the wall for fukkin decoration and Indy fabs casually strewn about.

I was staying with friends last month who live like four blocks from that place, I wandered by while walking the dog and kind of flipped out.
