Here are a couple of pics of my Bianchi, and my KHS. I could not pass up the Bianchi, I sold my older Bianchi for $50, and bought this one for $600, used.
It has the Reynolds carbon fork, Mavic wheels, and the Campy Mirage 9 speed/ 2speed group set. The handlebar shifters are much nicer than the downtubes. It has the Campy offset seat post. The handlebars are Super Europa. This is the first time that I have rode with pedal straps, I liked it. I put 12 miles on it this afternoon. It is immaculate in every way. It was traded in for merchandise at the bike shop. It had the shoe/ clip type pedals, and when I offered to just buy some regular pedals, the owner GAVE me the ones on it in exchange for the ones that it has currently. I did keep the little seat bag from the other bike. I met a fellow rider at the trail head today, and Geez, somebody was actually envious of my bike! Sorry, but I could not wait to lose 25 pounds in order to promise myself a better bike. After all, what good is the money if I don't spend it? I priced the fork alone at $300 around the internet.
