Service History:

  • Original tyres (can't remember what they were) went with the Bianchi wheels the Xeros are fitted with 700x23c Continental Gatorskins
  • Original chainset was a Campagnolo Mirage full size which makes the hills to hard for me, so changed for a compact, along with the front mech
  • Original Bianchi Ambrosio wheels swapped for the much faster and more rigid Xero XCR-1s
  • June 2010 seat post upgraded to Ritchley Carbon pro
  • July 2010 front forks replaced by later via Nirone 7 versions with k-vid vibration absorption and pro-lite 110mm 10deg stem added to assist with fit of the bike to me
