BianchiImpulso
Algupära
Impulso on olnud Bianchi valikus alates 2012. aastast kui brändi lipulaev alumiiniumist jõudlusmaanteeratta platvorm, mis on valmistatud kolmekordselt puhastatud A4 ja 6061 seeria alumiiniumtorudest. Selle tunnusjooneks on Bianchi poolt välja töötatud Triple Hydroforming Technology (THT) - iga toru hüdrovormitakse eraldi, keevitatakse ja seejärel hüdrovormitakse uuesti, et siluda liitekohti, andes alumiiniumraamile skulptuurse süsinikulaadse välimuse, mis on ebatavaline sisenemisvõistluse segmendis. Koos täissüsinikust kahvli, läbitelje ketta kinnituste ja kuni 40 mm rehvide mahutavusega ühendab Impulso maanteesõidu ja kõik-tee sõidu vahelise lõhe. Platvormi on mitu korda ümber ehitatud - viimati Reparto Corse poolt, et sobida konkurentsivõimeliseks kruusasõiduks Impulso Allroad alamliini all - muutes selle Bianchi kõige mitmekülgsemaks ja ligipääsetavamaks Celeste-värvitud jalgrattaks, mis on populaarne esimese 'päris' jõudlusmaanteerattana uutele sõitjatele.
Tehnilised andmed
- Raam
- 6061 triple-butted hydroformed aluminium; head tube + top tube use Bianchi Triple Hydroforming Technology (THT) for ~10% extra rigidity and smooth carbon-like joints
- Kahvel
- Full-carbon fork (later disc versions use flat-mount, 12x100 mm thru-axle); original 2012 road version had carbon blades with alloy steerer
- Jõuülekanne
- Build-dependent: original 2012 road bike offered Shimano 105 / Ultegra or Campagnolo Veloce 10sp; current Impulso Allroad uses Shimano GRX (810/600) or 105, compact 50/34 with 11-32t
- Pidurid
- Original 2012 road version: Reparto Corse alloy dual-pivot rim brakes; current Allroad version: Shimano hydraulic disc, flat-mount, thru-axle
- Rattad
- Reparto Corse alloy wheels (CDX22 Disc on Allroad — Alex rims on Bianchi hubs, clincher-only); entry-level, noted as the first upgrade target
- Rehvid
- Allroad ships with Kenda Flintridge Sport 35 mm wire-bead clinchers; frame clears up to 40 mm. Original 2012 road version ran Vittoria Zaffiro 25 mm
- Vedrustus
- Rigid (no suspension); compliance comes from the hydroformed alloy frame, carbon fork and wider tyres
- Rooliplokk
- Bianchi Reparto Corse alloy stem, bar (flared on Allroad) and seatpost; external cable routing
- Sadul
- Selle Royal / SR saddle (build-dependent) on alloy Reparto Corse seatpost
- Geomeetria
- Relaxed endurance/all-road geometry, ~71.5° head angle — stable and predictable rather than racy; more all-road than aggressive gravel
- Kaal
- ~10.5 kg (55 cm Allroad GRX); original 2012 Campagnolo road build ~9.4 kg; 105 All Road build ~10 kg (22 lb)
Verdikt
- Stiff, refined hydroformed alloy frame — reviewers call it one of the smoothest-riding aluminium bikes, with damping close to endurance carbon
- Stable, predictable handling thanks to relaxed ~71.5° geometry — confidence-inspiring for distance and mixed surfaces
- Strong groupset value (GRX 810 / 105) with easy compact gearing
- Generous fender and rack mounts make it genuinely versatile for commuting and bikepacking
- Iconic Celeste finish and Reparto Corse build give a premium look at an accessible price
- Entry-level Reparto Corse / Alex wheelset is clincher-only (not tubeless), prone to pinch flats and the obvious first upgrade
- 40 mm tyre clearance is tight for the gravel sector where rivals offer 47 mm / 650b
- No 650b wheel compatibility limits versatility versus modern gravel bikes
- Heavy complete bike (~10.5 kg / 22 lb) — weight is noticeable on climbs and rough terrain
- Stock bar tape too thin for off-road comfort; some reports of front-derailleur downshift action and paint-finish niggles
