In Bianchi history, the original “la dama bianca” (“lady in white”) was an elegant companion to Il Campionissimo, Fausto Coppi, in the 1940s and 1950s. Today, the Dama Bianca series is made to honor women who live and love riding. Geometries and other details are designed around women’s distinctive needs, but the bikes are pure Bianchi performance.

The frame that launched a thousand fixies: Available in white or black. Still the standard for fixed-gear bikes past and present.

Super-light, streamlined, performing: Oltre (“Beyond”) is the latest generation blend of Bianchi’s philosophy. A result achieved thanks to the carbon frame fabricated through the innovative X-Tex technology, that increases rigidity while limiting the weight. To push your limit far beyond.

Frame: Addict carbon, HMF-Net fibres
Fork: HMF-Net, carbon steerer

The Contessa line is a no compromise group of products for serious female cyclists. These bikes are adapted to rider needs with the same high end equipment found on men’s bikes. Whether you’re a recreational rider or a racer, there’s a Contessa bike for you.For Women who move.

The CR1 offers the perfect balance of performance and comfort. Designed to absorb shock and vibration created by irregularities in the road, this concept results in a very smooth and stable ride, reducing rider fatigue and making any ride more enjoyable. The bike’s lateral stiffness enables direct power transfer and ensures both confident cornering and descending. The geometry of the CR1 is performance oriented, but the top tube and head tube lengths offer a more comfortable position than pure racing frames. 

The seatstays, chainstays and fork all feature SDS, our Shock Damping System. These areas have been specially constructed with regard to tube shape, dimension, and fiber layup to provide vertical compliance without sacrificing torsional stiffness. 

Superlight wheels—which any racer will tell you are the most critical speed component—and the combination of compact cranks plus 11-28 or 32 tooth cogs gives you a big boost on climbs, with plenty of go-power to whoop it up on descents, where you'll make the most of the Endura's incredible handling manners and really appreciate the superb road feel of that full carbon hollow-crown fork.

Aggressive 78-degree seat tube angles help you maximize your power as you churn those gears, and we've given these bikes head angles and fork offsets that work like a charm with TT bars for straight-line stability in an aero tuck and sizzling-fast cornering manners on technical courses and at turnarounds.

This year’s crop of Jamis ’cross bikes gets serious, with a newly revamped tapered head tube and fork steerer—1-1/8” up top, 1-1/2” on the bottom—for an extremely solid fork/frame interface. The big fork crown allows for superior carbon fiber compaction and stiffness, for better handling in the rough. And we’ve integrated a CNC’d brake cable stop into the fork crown to combat the brake pulsing that often plagues carbon forks with cantis and headset cable stops.

Combined with Kestrel's new EMS PRO aero seat post, the Talon SL can handle both road and time-trial races. High-Modulous 800K carbon, an EMS Pro Aero fork and Shimano's new Ultegra Groupo provide you with an exceptional ride and function.

Speed and Control are yours when riding the Airfoil PRO SL, the Kestrel masterpiece that keeps getting better and better. Ridden to numerous victories, the Airfoil Pro SL combines forces with Shimano's new Ultegra groupo. New for 2011 are Oval Concept Wheels, Brakes and Stem as well as Oval carbon bars and carbon brake levers. The Oval saddle with Ti Rails is mounted on a new Kestrel EMS PRO Airfoil adjustable seat post with a Ritchey clamp system. The new and lighter full carbon EMS PRO SL fork rounds out the Airfoil PRO SL's high quality 800K Hi-Modulus carbon frame.

Kestrel’s Steven Harad says “It allows us to custom tune the ride quality of the frame to be ultra stiff in the head tube, and bottom bracket area while allowing us to keep the ride quality extremely comfortable. Like our other Kestrel frames, we use a modular monocoque design that follows our Frameset Component Integration. This means the fork, seat post and rear stays are designed specific per size to ensure that each one of our sizes rides exactly like the other size.
