Bianchi fixie with wooden handlebar

[Bruno Moore]

Oh yeah, seen that bike in the shop once with its owner. Meant to ask him about it, and those hbars. No confusing it for anything else on the streets.

Also wanted to know how that aluminum frame rides on the street. As the Bianchi rep put it once, “ride it on the streets and you’ll be pissing blood.” Hope that’s not literally the case…

Psh. Track bikes are great on the street. Then when you ride any of your other bikes, they feel as plush (and as slow and pig-like) as an old Cadillac in comparison.

FWIW I stupidly did the “Rapha Rising” challenge last year on a fixed gear with 23mm tires and did have some bloody piss at one point. I’ve since switched to a cushier saddle for that bike. Been meaning to switch to a wider set of tires too.
