Does anyone know the design reasons behind the shape of the Bianchi carbon fork? What I'm talking about is probably best seen in this picture. The shape with that sharp vertical edge (where the Bianchi logo is) is quite strange to me.

Bianchi Cross Concept:
As I keep saying, I need to take a new picture of it because it had road tires on it. PLus that picture does no justice.

1998 Campione
2003 EV4
Working on a new-to-me Alloro; I'll probably transfer stuff from EV4 to Alloro.
As much as I like the EV4, it's got three strikes against it: it has a sloping
top tube, that sloping top tube makes getting 24oz bottles in and out difficult
(with the TacX Tao cages), and it's not Celeste.

BlastRadius, what size is that EV4? Do they have a weight limit? Also, how do you like the CF fork and 1" threadless headset on your Campione since you've switched it out? Which bike do you like better?

Isn't that just a myth? I didnt think it was actually true....
