The Bianchi bikes seem alright, I like the idea of steel. But, I'd like better components than the Brava offers. And other people online suggested that it's too much of an entry level bike, in their humble opinions. [Quote]


In my stable, I have 5 bikes, my first road bike was Bianchi Brava, I finished a 78 miles cross country ride comfortably, it's smoth, it's stable because of the steel. I think it's a very good entry level bike, a good touring bike, and right now I use it for commuting. I never have any neck pain or back pain with Brava, I'm 5'3'', and Brava is 52cm. (fitting adjustment is important).
One year after I learn everything about road cycling on my Brava, I wanted something can feed my need of speed, so I got a TREK 2200 (which is a truly entry level Tri bike), because of better components and much lighter than Brava.
And if you are taller than me, don't get the WSD.
It's only my opinion.
