    Ok folks looking to get a bianchi as an early birthday present. Have narrowed it down to two models, the sempre pro and impulso. Naturally because its a bianchi, it'll be celeste with campagnolo, but I'm torn between the two.
    What I'm looking for is if any other boardsies have any experience with either model, any pros a x negatives of each?

    I know very little about Bianchi, mainly because they are rare. One thing I will say is that with Bianchi you seem to be paying for the name more than anything else. There are other brands that are a higher spec than a Bianchi and for less money.

    I personally think the Bianchi bikes look beautiful, so part of me is jealous :)

    I would go with the Sempre Pro myself, love the look of them.

    They're very different frames. Sempre is marketed as a top of the line carbon race frame while the Impulso is aluminium with a relaxed geometry. It really depends on what you're looking for from a frame.

    Always Sempre..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-5WDMXxG_I

    I have mine a couple of months now and it is lovely.... I go the Ultegra but insisted on the Celeste/Black frame.

    Are you sure you don't mean the intenso instead of the impulso?
