Does anyone have any info on the 2005 Bianchi CC? I understand there will be a Shimano (Ultegra) version and a Campy (Veloce) version but nothing more. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks. reed 09-06-2004, 01:32 PM that the frame will be the same as the 2004 model (different color scheme) and that the cranks are more "cross specific" other than that I've heard it's very similar to the 2004... oh and I heard about a campy version as well. Only second-hand info though. I guess Bianchi is choosing not to mess with a great thing- smart since it's such a sweet CX bike. durangoscott 09-15-2004, 09:27 AM The big news for Bianchi and 2005 is the introduction of a new model. The Axis is essentially unchanged for 2005, other than paint (which in my opinion is a good thing). The new Cross Concept will come with Ultegra 10 speed, which looks pretty cool. Other than that nothing else is really new. The New Model willl be called the Cross Veloce. It will come with a complete Campy Veloce 10 speed groupo mounted on a Cross Concept frame. The best part? A Campy Vento wheelset. It's one of their introductory wheelsets, but should hold up pretty well to cross duty. Anyway, here are the compete specs for all the upcoming models: Axis: Specifications Style 27spd Cyclo-cross Sizes 44, 49, 52, 55, 57, 59, 61cm Colors Matte Black/Celeste Frame Easton UltraLite, fender eyelets Fork Bianchi carbon, threadless alloy steerer, fender eyelets Retail Price Components Headset Tange Integrated 1 1/8" threadless Handlebar Deda Elementi Piega Stem Bianchi Componenti Brakes/Levers Shimano cantilever / Shimano 105 STI Crankset Sugino XD500T 26/36/48T Bottom Bracket Cartridge Chain Shimano Cassette SRAM, 11/32T 9spd Pedals VP clipless, 2-sided Wheels Alex ALX 320 wheelset Tires IRC Mythos CS Slick, 700x35C Derailleurs, r/f Shimano Deore XT 9spd / Shimano 105 31.8mm Shifters Shimano 105 STI Saddle WTB Rocket V Race Carbon Seatpost Bianchi Componenti, 27.2mm Cross Veloce: Specifications Style 20spd Cyclo-cross Sizes 49, 52, 55, 57, 59, 61cm Colors Celeste/Dark Blue Frame Scandium 7000 with carbon rear triangle Fork Bianchi carbon, threadless alloy steerer Retail Price Components Headset Tange Integrated 1 1/8"threadless Handlebar Deda Elementi Piega Stem Bianchi Componenti Brakes/Levers Avid Shorty cantilevers / Campagnolo Veloce ErgoPower levers Crankset FSA Gossamer Cross, 38/48T Bottom Bracket FSA cartridge, ISIS Chain KMC Cassette Campagnolo Veloce, 12/25T 10spd Pedals n/a Wheels Campagnolo Vento wheelset Tires IRC Mythos CS Slick KB, 700x35C Derailleurs, r/f Campagnolo Veloce 10spd / Veloce 32mm Shifters Campagnolo Veloce ErgoPower Saddle WTB Rocket V Race Carbon Seatpost Bianchi Componenti, 27.2mm Cross Concept: Specifications Style 20spd Cyclo-cross Sizes 49, 52, 55, 57, 59, 61cm Colors Celeste/Dark Blue Frame Scandium 7000 with carbon rear triangle Fork Bianchi carbon, threadless alloy steerer Retail Price Components Headset Tange Integrated 1 1/8"threadless Handlebar Deda Elementi Piega Stem Bianchi Componenti Brakes/Levers Shimano cantilever / Shimano Ultegra STI Crankset FSA Gossamer Cross 38/48T Bottom Bracket FSA cartridge, ISIS Chain KMC Cassette Shimano Ultegra, 12/25T 10spd Pedals n/a Wheels Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheelset Tires IRC Mythos CS Slick KB, 700x35C Derailleurs, r/f Shimano Ultegra 10spd / Ultegra 31.8mm Shifters Shimano Ultegra STI Saddle WTB Rocket V Race Carbon Seatpost Bianchi Componenti, 27.2mm |
