That Bianchi is pretty cool. If you're looking for a brand new bike, I'm not sure that they manufacture that model anymore, as it is a 2005. It's also a cyclocross bike, which means it has fatter, knobbier tires than a standard road bike, and generally has a slightly heavier frame and more robust fork for riding unpaved trails and so on. As far as true road bikes go, the Giant Defy 3 is a solid contender. It has a nice relaxed frame, and a carbon fork to absorb road vibration and bumps. You can get them new at a store for $750. Also keep in mind the Trek 1.2, Specialized Allez, or Felt Z100.
