		It is important to note that Bianchi is a legendary name, and has been at the forefront of the development of the bicycle since the late 1800's.
		As Bianchi tells it, one hundred years ago, the young sport and industry of cycling were growing rapidly, and one of the leading architects of the boom was a visionary man named Edoardo Bianchi.
		Colnago argues that their bicycles have two special aspects: first, Colnago has one production line only, and therefore, the bicycles of top professionals and normal users are produced together, by the same personnel with identical criteria; second by sponsoring leading professional teams every year, Colnago subjects itself to public scrutiny at a competitive level.

		Sometimes manufacturers provide these and they usually explain what brand and type of material is used in the frame.
		A popular quality steel for bicycle frames is American SAE 4130 steel, better known as "chrome molybdenum," and referred to as "chromoly" or "chrome-moly." And, there are plenty of other impressive alloys offered by tubing suppliers such as Columbus, Reynolds, Tange and True Temper.
		Bike companies use a variety of different tires on their road models and usually, the tires are good for 1,000 to 2,000 miles, depending on your weight, riding style, and whether the tire is located on the front or back.

		As the bicycle continued its evolution, large front wheels remained the norm, because it was believed that the bigger the front wheel, the faster the bike.
		At that time bicycles became more aerodynamic and made use of more unconventional frames, and a new breed of bicycles, the mountain bike, was born.
		As the rebirth of the bicycle in Italy began, the United States introduced the mountain bike and global demand for bicycles skyrocketed.

		This was so because when the engineers went to work, it was the recumbent design, which is 25 to 33% more aerodynamically efficient than a conventional upright bicycle, that satisfied their equations for a two wheeler that could produce such speed.
		Soon, in 1986, a recumbent bicycle ridden by Fast Freddy Markham captured the Dupont prize and it was his victory that gave a shot of adrenaline to the fledgling industry that Ryan had helped to revitalize.
		With the recumbent, people are discovering that their bicycle does not have to cause them pain.

	Bicycle History
		After the fundamentals of bicycle design had been conceived by the end of the 1860s, a multitude of subsequent improvements were suggested and tried.
		For example, the drawing of a “bicycle” (circa 1493) purported to be by Giacomo Caprotti, a pupil of Leonardo da Vinci (photo left; click to enlarge; source #1), is now acknowledged by most to be a hoax.
		Bianchi produced a folding bicycle for the Italian Army with telescoping seatstays, a leaf spring at the bottom bracket, a spring fork and large profile pneumatic tires.

		To Edoardo Bianchi, racing was a way for his company and the fledgling sport to impress the uninitiated, and he knew the demands of competition would make his bikes better.
		So in 1899, Bianchi enthusiastically backed Giovanni Ferdinando Tomaselli, a young racer contesting the most prestigious cycling event in the world, the Gran Prix of Paris (which would evolve into the Tour de France by 1903).
		Fresh off Tomaselli’s triumph, Edoardo Bianchi wrote in his 1900 product catalog: "The experience of many years of work, with the adapted aid of machinery, assures the Bianchi brand of supremacy in the construction of bicycles." His message rang true then.

		The officer told Holland she was violating this equipment requirement and said she must install a front brake to her bike or face a fine.
		Ginsberg - a veteran Category 2 road racer and owner of several fixed gear bicycles - thought the officer overstepped his authority by requiring the front brake and that the judge was incorrectly applying the statute.
		He argued that Oregon statute does not clearly define what a brake is, and that his client was fully capable of bringing her bicycle to a "skid on dry, level, clean pavement." Ginsberg also offered to have his client demonstrate a skidding, fixed gear stop for the court; but the judge declined.

	The Bianchi Volpe
		The 1990s were a time when decent touring bikes were very scarce in the market, probably in reactionto the excesses of the mid 1980s when the touring bike market was glutted.
		The Bianchi Volpe was and remains a very nice bike, but it is no longer as unusual as it was in 1997 when this article was written.
		Like most Bianchi road bikes it comes with throwaway plastic pedals for test ride purposes...you are expected to buy the clipless pedals of your choice.

	Reparto Corse: The Story of Bianchi \| EBykr
		It was a Bianchi which looked to be from the early 1980’s with the traditional horizontal dropouts, “Bianchi” stamped on the seatstay tubes, brake bosses, and rear pannier braze-ons – which led me to believe it was an early touring bike.
		Bianchi was quite a visionary because within three years, the company introduced one of the first bikes with wheels of nearly identical size and chain drive called the “safety bike” as well as the world’s first bicycle with pneumatic tires.
		Bianchi first put this concept to work in 1896 by racing their bicycles in order to establish a proving ground for their technology.

		We had some problems but in the end I think it was a good thing that Bianchi took over," Ullrich told a news conference on Friday.

	Sachs article in cigar mag
		For most of us, the idea of comparing a bicycle to the sleekest race car seems an exaggeration, but very few cyclists ever know the feel of covering miles of pavement at high speed on a bicycle custom-fitted and hand-built by the best craftsmen in the world.
		The rest of the bicycle is fitted with select components--cranks, headsets, saddle, pedals, derailleurs, brakes, rims and tires--made by a few manufacturers, most prominently Italy's Campagnolo, Japan's Shimano and France's Mavic.
		Bicycling and the aerospace industry have long been linked--the Wright brothers built their plane, the Kitty Hawk, in their Dayton, Ohio, bicycle shop.
