Smooth long distance performance. The Bianchi Intenso is an endurance road bike that combines a comfortable ride with nimble handling characteristics.
The Intenso Carbon frame features a slightly more upright endurance riding position that still offers sharp handling for a fun ride mile after mile. The Intenso is exceptionally smooth rolling on rough roads thanks to Bianchis Active Technology carbon layup and the K-VID Kevlar vibration damping inserts in the full carbon fork and rear stays.
The slick shifting Shimano 105 2x11 speed drivetrain features a compact chainset for taking on varied terrain. The Fulcrum Racing Sport wheels are shod with 25mm tyres for long distance performance.
With its Italian race heritage, the Bianchi Intenso 105 is ideal for Sportives and long distance cycling as well as general road riding on less than perfect British roads.
