Fork

Submitted by mushroom on 07/27/2008.

Hi Doggus
Do you know of any other forks on the market with a very shallow to almost straight rake that will fit and look aesthetically right, being that the diameter of the Bianchi head tube is as far as I know, unique leaving a slight lip where the fork meets the head tube. I also wish to fit a front brake but keep the wheel base very short.

is it true the axis only has 40mm of rake?

Brake..

Submitted by plugnplay on 08/07/2007.

hi there! how did u manage to put a brake on the front fork when there's no brake mounting on it? Or you've changed the front fork?
thanks.

I have two fork/handlebar

Submitted by Doggus on 08/08/2007.

I have two fork/handlebar setups.

For road use I bought a Forte Axis straight blade carbon fork (PerformanceBike re-branded Kinesis Energy fork) for on sale. It is a solid fork and has good reviews. Pre-drilled for a brake.

I was highly advised not to drill the Bianchi stock fork although you can see here it has been done. I choose the safer option since I do run the track with it.

Chain

Get that rear wheel all the way forward in the dropouts you savage! If you wanted long wheelbase you could've converted a 10 speed and saved 00.

Savage no more...

Removed two links...now I can't get a bigger chainring on there. Thanks!

P.S. Only a dumba55 would pay MSRP for a bike. I generally pay ~75%

Clearance

Submitted by jonaent on 08/02/2007.

It seems to have quite a large wheel clearance.... is that normal for the '07, or are they small wheels?

Large frame is the culprit

Submitted by Doggus on 08/06/2007.

All my bikes look like they have smaller than 700c wheels because I always have really large frames. This is the largest they make at 61cm.

clearance

Submitted by Jonny W on 08/02/2007.

It looks like the chain might have a few too many links in it.
