Bianchi Oltre worth it?
Have the chance to land a 2017 Oltre “Nero” di2 for $2500. Looks to be in perfect condition with Ultegra components AND has a set of Zipp 404’s on it. Im just recently getting more into riding (~twice a week, 30 miles/day), I have a 2017 BMC Teammachine SLR03 with some new “mid tier” carbon wheels just put on, and it’s great for me. I definitely don’t need another, more expensive bike, but this thing is gorgeous. Thoughts?

If you are here to find validation and encouragement to purchase that Oltre, I’ll bite. Buy it. Ride it. Give us a ride report and post pics.

You could be smashed by a car tomorrow, or get COVID, or whatever.

That's a great deal on an amazing bike but, there is no way I would buy a Bianchi that wasn't Celeste. I'm shallow like that...
