Eros

The Eros has the same great Reynolds frame as the Veloce, Vigorelli and Imola, but with the more affordable 27-speed Campagnolo Mirage groupset. The Eros has long been a favorite for charity and century riders, because of the comfortable, stable CrMo frame with the famous Bianchi ride and hill-taming wide gearing. The Mavic Askium wheelset is new for 2006. Two colors (available in celeste) and eight sizes means you can pick and choose.
