Giro

For 2005, the Giro gets a Bianchi Reparto Corse SL3/Carbon frame: double-butted, special profile aluminum with bump-soaking carbon rear stays. Wide gearing and fast Mavic wheels make this a great all-around entry racer or hill climber, depending on whether you opt for the 18-speed version or the 27-speed set-up.

Also available in Celeste; available as frameset; available with 44cm frame.
