Bianchi Aria Ultegra Road Bike 2018
Ride with greater speed, comfort and style with the Ultegra equipped Bianchi Aria Road Bike. Featuring a cutting-edge design, the frameset's aerodynamic profile reduces drag for increased speed, while the full carbon fibre construction dampens road feedback for a comfortable ride on long routes and uneven terrain. This combination of compliance and stiffness makes the Aria a great all-rounder, suitable for triathlons, road racing, alpine adventures and anything in between.
With a design tailored towards optimum performance, the tubing has been shaped to offer reduced drag out on the road. The frame, fork, seatpost, and seat clamp merge seamlessly with one another to improve the aerodynamics, whilst also providing a clean overall look. Additionally, the PressFit Bottom Bracket system and tapered fork steerer add some extra stiffness in key areas for a direct, responsive ride, while the internally routed cables perfect the bikes slick finish. Based on Bianchi's proven race geometry the Aria places the rider in a performance focussed position, suited towards fast-paced riding for extended periods of time.
With the smooth reliable shifting expected from Shimano's second-best mechanical offering, the Ultegra 11-speed Groupset complements the Aria perfectly. The R8000 calipers utilise a dual pivot design to provide sharp, modulated stopping power, while the 50/34T chainset and 11-28T cassette combine to offer a gear range broad enough for spinning up steep climbs and tackling high-intensity efforts on the flats alike.
Completed with Vision's Team 35 Comp Wheelset and a pair of Vittoria Zafiro Pro Slick Tyres, the Aria's versatility is further enhanced. The wheelset utilises a semi-deep profile to balance aerodynamic efficiency with crosswind stability, while the 25mm wide tyres reduce rolling resistance and increase traction for a confidence inspiring ride across varied terrain and through mixed weather conditions.
