Nice bike. It's odd to see a red Bianchi.

Clipless pedals aren't.

It's the BF fashion police. Pay them no heed. If it fits, you're fine.

But here's my thought. I flipped mine and it got even better.
First you have to have your ass on the bike in the right place. Seat height and set back are primary. You should be able to be bent over and be able to let go of the bars and slowly move from the drops to the tops and vice versa.
Watch this video. It was posted in a thread recently and I can't find the source. But it's good and makes sense. It's got me thinking I'm gonna lower my bars all the way.

Well, OK. I'm sure you know best. And I agree that if it feels good and you're getting good , comfortable kilometers and your hands and butt aren't going numb, don't change a thing.
But here's my thought. I flipped mine and it got even better.

I like the fact that he mentions the upward tilt on the saddle at the end of the video, I do that on mind and tend to get a little flack for it, but it helps me stay on the right part of the saddle and still doesn't break my balls.
