wat? there's no way in hell that's a real Bianchi. this is like the bike version of buying a Louis Vouiton handbag from a kiosk next to the subway, a chinese bootleg except not even pretending to look anything like the brand name product

its a walgoose- look at the welds

Bianchi is not a premium bicycle line, so comparing their garbage to Louis Vouiton is a total misnomer. Bianchi is more like the Calvin Klein of the bicycle world. Cheap crap for people that simply don't know any better.

Anyway who would would bother spending money to repaint and rebadge a bike that inexpensive? You could just buy a normal Bianchi for the same cost. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's authentic. Bianchi makes BSOs.

It's fine for 2kms daily.

>>986534
It won't break or something, right? I don't want to lose my balls to aluminium frame.
>>
>>986536
No

>>986536
Nah, you're fine.
>>
>>986536
2 km is nothing.

Only when you do 20 km daily (still a short ride) or more you should consider something better.
And it's not because the bike is unsafe, just slower.

But 2 km is not something where you should be bothered about any of that shit.

Niggah you gay.

Gonna assume you aren't a troll.

If you ride 100% on pavement and never on dirt/gravel, get some light slick tires, preferably between 1.1 to 1.35 inch width. They'll feel noticeably faster, huge return on investment.

Continental makes Grand Prix and Gatorskin for 26" wheels, and Schwalbe makes Durano tire in 26" as well. My vote goes toward the Grand Prix, it's a very light and fast tire with decent durability.

this is bad advice he should keep the flexibility to take it on downhill trails. Memeing everything up with slicks is tryhard
>>
>>986801

I mean, if he does ride it off-road yeah. But if he has literally never EVER gone off pavement(which is common for commuters) what's the point?

Functionality first.
>>
>>986804
for 2km at blazing speed on 'the flash' what is the point
>>
>>986788
Well I ride in pavement but here in Turkey roads are shit and always bumpy
>>
>>986533
>2km daily
nigga why don't you just walk
>>
>>987154
Because its full of hills and when I walk it takes ~30 mins but if I bike it takes 10 minutes
