BIANCHI ARIA CENTAUR BIKE

The versatile experience you expect in your Bianchi road bike is epitomized in the Aria Centaur. This aerodynamic road bike is engineered to give you the most efficient performance possible. Whether you are flying down the road on your weekend ride, competing in a time trial, or using it for a triathlon, the Aria Centaur is ready to push the pace. As is the case with any aero bike, the tubes and fork feature a narrow profile to cut through the wind. Bianchi discovered their ideal tube shape through fluid dynamic testing, feedback from professionals, and countless hours of work in the wind tunnel. They came out on the other side with a bike that is equipped for a long day on the road as well as a triathlon sprint.

To achieve the fastest performance on the road, it is important for the bike and its rider to be equally aerodynamic. The rider is what makes up the vast majority of drag, so regardless of how aero a bike is, it is all for naught without good positioning. The Bianchi Aria Centaur boasts an aggressive geometry that promotes high-speed sprint performance. Sharing the exact same geometry as the Oltre and Specialissima means you can be certain of proper positioning. Achieving the desired aerodynamic tuck position is done naturally and comfortably thanks to the influences of this bike’s geometry.

If you decide you want to use your Aria Centaur in your next triathlon, you may be pleasantly surprised with its seamless transition. You can easily add clip-on aero bars and adjust their stack height. After adjusting the saddle and its angle, your Aria will be ready to go on the open road. Bianchi prides itself on building bikes that can perform in multiple areas with high-performance. The Aria is a great example of that idea succeeding.

This bike is equipped with Campagnolo’s mechanical Centaur groupset. Centaur knocks off a solid chunk of the cost to offer riders this performance aerodynamic machine at a brilliant price. If you decide to switch out your groupset at some point down the frame is compatible with both mechanical and electronic groups. It also allows for internal cable routing. If you are looking for a fast and aerodynamic bike that can fulfill multiple needs at once, the Bianchi Aria Centaur has you covered with a hard to beat price.
