Summary
The Bianchi Vertigo is praised for its sweet-handling and good-natured ride quality, offering comfort and stability with a distinctive look and heritage. However, it faces criticism for its odd geometry and harsh ride quality in some builds, alongside a mix of component quality.
Sweet-handling and good-natured bike
Distinctive looks and obvious heritage
Stable and easy to ride thanks to longer wheelbase
Beautiful quality and finish
Neutral steering regardless of speed
Odd geometry and uncomfortable fit for some riders
Harsh ride quality for a carbon frame
Stiff frame can be uncomfortable over long journeys
Entry level wheels affect performance
this Vertigo is a sweet-handling, good-natured bike that you could ride from Lombardy to Loch Lomond and still feel fresh
Cycling WeeklyIt’s amazing how big a difference a degree can make. The slack seat angle combined with the layback post meant that we felt creased up on the Vertigo.
CyclistBeautiful handling thanks to stable geometry but on the harsh side for a carbon frame.

Bianchi is the oldest bike brand in the world. Unsurprisingly, it knows how to design a mid-priced road bike
