That fit would be pretty atypical even amongst pro-tour riders - you have to have pretty long arms for that to work. Bikes like that always look better with the rider (assuming it's a good fit) on them, then they tend to make sense. Have you guys seen Ryan Trebon's bike (see below)? Bianchi went a little too extreme and I agree that this was for fashion - they could have taken the saddles down a few inches and still had the bikes look pro.
