Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Bianchi bikes at big discount!

I found a Bianchi dealer who has some 2006 bikes at super great deals. They want to lower their inventory. I am passing this info on for you Bianchi riders. I just got a very good deal on a Eros at 850. Some of their items: Volpe, sizes 55&58 at 700., Axis, 53&55, at 900., Eros Donna (women), not sure what sizes, but retail is 1299. and sale is 850., Strada, 55&58, 500., and a 2005 Veloce, size 55 at 950. He may have others. What do you guys think of this pricing? I only compared the bike I bought to a dealer in my area and my savings were considerable. Are these really good prices or just regular sales prices? Thanks.

I'd say they're a little too good. Link?
Keep in mind if it's online the dealer is violating the terms of their dealer agreement with Bianchi so you might have issues getting warranty work if needed.

This is no online dealer, but a well established shop who want to reduce inventory on a few bikes. After doing some price comparisons on my Eros, I found these prices really good.

I have a friend looking for a 57cm Bianchi on close out. Does your shop have a 57cm Veloce at that price? Will your shop ship?
Thanks,
George

I agree... If people would enter a location in their profile we could at least know if we are interested in pursuing the good deal in the message, or checking out the route, or whatever!

So many posts use phrases like "on main street" or "Route 115" and the writers leave us with no clue about the city or state or even country where they are talking about. If the profiles were accurate, I would at least know that the Route 115 in question is the one near me or not...

Agreed. The OP's post is utterly useless without this bit of information. Pony up dude!

Sorry guys, busy day. I will honor this shops request not to post their name. Feel free to email me for contact name. Contact him directly and PLEASE don't post the name of their shop here. FYI, I get my new Eros next week (yes, they will ship) and will post a pic of this Celeste green beauty...I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas!
Many thanks!
Jim
