Bicycle Doctor - Road Racing Bikes

Bicycle Doctor stocks both Bianchi and Trek and performance road racing bikes

Bianchi have 6 ranges:

Via Nirone 7 – The address of Edoardo Bianchi's first workshop in Milan was 7 Via Nirone. This is a responsive and rigid frame in triple-butted 6061-series aluminum throughout with hydroformed sections to ensure the highest standards of design and performance.
Cento strade – C2C (Coast 2 Coast) Carbon frame with kevlar inserts, increasing the frames absorbtion of vibration
Infinito – Replacing the C2C (Coast 2 Coast) 928 Carbon, the new Infinito is 200g lighter and is apparently more rigid as well. It features a slightly longer wheelbase and longer head tube. (source Bike radar)
Oltre – this model is part of the HOC (Hors category) Road range and is projected to guarantee super-light weight and extreme racing performances thanks to reactive geometry. The new carbon frame stands out for rigidity, stiffness and weight without compromise: it is the best performance Bianchi road frame ever made. It's aggressive design and aero shape make the Oltre faster on the flat and in the downhill. It also features internal cable routing. What makes the Oltre a truly special bike is the X-Tex Technology: Bianchi's unique process to internally mold X-weaved structural carbon to provide much better results in terms of stiffness and impact resistance.
Sempre – meaning "always", is part of the B4P (Born for Performance) Road collection. It is the bike for all kind of rider, projected with maximum weight/rigidity ratio and Bianchi racing geometry. It stands out for big sections in important areas like head tube and BB for best rigidity and handling. The full carbon frame is built with Nanotechnology. For the Sempre model, Bianchi has developed a complete new range of customized components (Bianchi Reparto Corse) that perfectly match bikes' colours
Impulso - a new aluminium bike that fits into the existing C2C (Coast to Coast) long distance racing range and features technology that’s exclusive to the Italian marque. It is made from triple-butted A4 aluminium and 6061 alloy that’s hydroformed to improve the rigidity. Its most distinctive feature is the inclusion of Bianchi’s new Triple Hydroformed Technology in the top tube and head tube

Who could fail to be inspired by Lance Armstrong’s 7 times Tour de France winning Trek OCLV road bike

Trek’s top of the range carbon fibre frames have been an intense object of desire for competition and leisure riders alike.

OCLV is Trek proprietary carbon fibre technology :

OC = "Optimum Compaction", the process of densely compressing layers of multi-directional carbon fibre to maximise strength and minimize weight
LV = "Low Void" – minimizing voids (weak spots) in carbon structures

Trek’s OCLV process yields less than 1% voids to create a structure so strong it exceeds even aerospace standards. Year on year, the product improves and this year the Madone series, having been released from the design limitations imposed by a certain Mr A, has been redesigned from scratch bottom, with total emphasis on efficiency and comfort. The result is really rather amazing and it looks beautiful as well. No surprise really, as the best designs tend to be a synthesis of function and form.
There are two geometries in the range:

Performance fit, with a longer headtube for a more upright position, pace the Pilot models of last year
WSD fit, specifically designed for women

They all go like the clappers, and are comfortable enough to spend the whole day in the saddle. These bikes are pretty much unbeatable anywhere!

The aluminium and alu/carbon range has been redesigned along the lines of the Madone Performance fit. The starter model, the 1.2 has clearance for guards and rack mounts. The rest just have the slightly longer headtube, giving a more forgiving ride for the lower back, and the occasional glimpse of the countryside as it flashes by.

What else is there?

Aluminium still rules the roost for fantastic value frames, Trek’s proprietary alu frames in Alpha SL and Alpha SLR range from entry level to race level so you can choose the bike best suited to your pocket
Carbon forks and stays are added as you go up the range for improved performance
