Bianchi has decided to dedicate even more attention to its female cycling fans thanks to the contribution and cooperation from its professional cycling team, as well as the fast growing demands of the market. The three Womens Road models are dedicated to the cyclists for three different ways of perceiving cycling.

You could say that track bikes were the first bikes Bianchi ever made—although back then, multi-geared drivetrains had yet to be invented. A lot has happened in bicycle technology these last 122 years, but the elemental simplicity of a fixed-gear bike is still hard to resist. Bianchi’s track bikes show how we’ve been doing them better and longer than anyone else.

Bianchi’s cyclocross bikes are the expression of our unparalleled experience, perspectives, and technological abilities. One thing we know better than any other manufacturer is how to build a racing bike. In this case, the particular demands of cyclocross racing inspire us to make cross bikes that can get around the course and through the season better than anything else out there.

Bianchi’s Cross-Terrain^® line encompasses all-around bikes as well as commuter and transit-friendly steeds. But since we invented this style of bike 20 years ago, our Cross-Terrain^® bikes have always represented something more than just two wheels: They’re about adventure, freedom, and the pleasure of getting from point A to point B under your own power.

When Edoardo Bianchi established the modern bicycle—using equal-size wheels with inflatable rubber tires—in the 1880s, it wasn’t long before he was making bikes for all different types of riders. There were racing bikes, motorized bikes, and women’s bikes (inspired by the queen of Italy). And then there were the army bikes.

 

In 1911, the Italian military commissioned Bianchi to create a bike for the elite Army Alpine Corps. The bike Bianchi delivered can rightly take its place as a forerunner of today’s mountain bikes. It had front and rear suspension, rim brakes, and rider-specific conveniences such as a foldable frame for portability and a rifle carrier. And far from being a showy design exercise, those Bianchi off-road bikes saw action in World War I.

 

Nearly 100 years later, Bianchi mountain bikes are still characterized by original thinking and rider-serving designs. The Reparto Corse works with World Cup racers to develop elite racing bikes like the Oetzi carbon monocoque. Bianchi USA, based in Northern California, has been a pioneer in creating alterative mountain bikes such as our proven series of single-speeds. We also offer more mainstream ways to go off-road, including aluminum hardtails and all-around “big hit” mountain bikes. Edoardo Bianchi had it right and so do we: However you like your dirt served up, there’s a Bianchi mountain bike to make the ride as good as it should be.
