Diggin’ the Alter stem… Is that your guard dog in the photo or do you take a lock with you?

nice bianchi pista. I am usually bored with them, but the stem and bars really make it unique without overdoing it like some people would (like adding a green wheel set with yellow tires, etc.)

An Amish farmer could hook up the horse team and use the handlebars and stem to furrow the fields like a plow. NOT my taste but I am an old phart some would say. I prefer a bike with brakes and chrome. Put Thompson as a name on it not Bianchi’s ad. Attractive frame color ! Thanks.

The Cinelli Alter stem is a cool piece of metal. CNC machined out of aluminum. You can see through it to your front wheel/tire and the road.

The yellow stem and green handlebars seem outta place… but then again, how often do you come across a cinelli alter stem. I got lucky and found my a black and white for $30.

I like the Italian women better than their bikes. Too much labeling detracting from the machine. May as well leave the price tag on too!

Bike porn! Not so keen on the green risers, but they do make the bike unique. Lovely clean lines, nice colour. One of the few bikes I like with risers.
Nice job Matt, now go ride it fast!
