Quick question!
Im new to the world of bikes and I was wondering why the top tube of this bianchi is tilted back instead of straight across like most others?

hi there, look at where the wall meets the ground.
To me it looks like there is a fair bit of barrel distortion in the lens of the camera used to take ths shot together with it (the photo) not being taken level.
In other words - photo not bike. I think the top tube is in fact level.

Take a sheet of paper, put the left side of it against the frame on your monitor, and slide the paper down till it touches the top of the front wheel. The rear wheel is lower. The top tube is about the same distance off.
The picture is slightly not level.
