Bianchi Bikes

Edoardo Bianchi started his bicycle manufacturing

Its riders have had numerous Tour de France and Giro d'Italia victories. Several famous riders of different eras have been associated with Bianchi including Fausto Coppi and Felice Gimondi, who still continues his association with the company. Some recent famous riders include Danilo Di Luca, Mario Cipollini, Marco Pantani, Moreno Argentin and Jan Ullrich. Until the 2007 season, Bianchi was a co-sponsor of the UCI ProTour team Liquigas.

Bianchi bicycles are traditionally painted in the highly recognizable "Celeste", (Pronounced che-les-te) a turquoise colour also known as "Bianchi GREEN." There are two opposing legends concerning the origin of this colour - some say it is the colour of the Milan sky, others say it was the colour of the eyes of the former Queen of Italy, for whom Edoardo Bianchi once made a bicycle. There is also some speculation that the "Celeste" color was the result of surplus military paint.

Bianchi Reparto Corse

Bianchi Reparto Corse continues to pursue technological development and constant research, taking advantage of new concepts and targets achieved to deliver ultimate performance to its customers, professional and amateur alike.

Bianchi Reparto Corse is the utmost expression of the "celeste" philosophy. At Bianchi everything is home-made, an unrelenting activity of tests and experiments takes place at every production stage, from the design of the tubes section all the way through to the release of the finished product.

All frames share the same philosophy in order to maximize the product's potential, taking into account its final destination, from the most cutting-edge prototype design to the entry-level production version.

Tubing is therefore machined to the most suitable dimensions and gauges. The differences between a top range frame and one conceived for a more popular clientele are the weight, the materials, the tubes sections and the type of welding.

But all the bicycles from Reparto Corse share a unique, identical shape concept; they all come from the same design, whatever their base material is: aluminum, steel, carbon or titanium.

F.I.V. Edoardo Bianchi S.p.A and its subsidiary brands (Such as Legnano, Gitane, Puch and Chiorda) has been part of Cycleurope Group, the Swedish company of Grimaldi Industri AB, since May 1997. Bianchi is also considered to be the oldest bicycle manufacturer in the world today, having pioneered the use of equal-sized wheels with pneumatic rubber tires in 1885, and the front wheel caliper-operated braking mechanism. The company manufactures various types of bicycle, including road, mountain, track, and cruiser bicycles. They are best known for their racing bicycles built by their famous Reparto Corse (Race Department) factory in Treviglio, Bergamo, Italy; which more often than not are equipped with Campagnolo parts.

In the United States, only the Reparto Corse range are still produced in Italy. Non-Reparto Corse models are not available elsewhere.
