Bianchi Arcadex review: Stiff and short - CyclingTips

Oct 2021 · Caley Fretz

Super efficient under power, but a brutally stiff ride, odd geometry and aesthetics, and some odd routing and spec choices.

Highs
  • Incredibly stiff.

Lows
  • Incredibly stiff, short fit, questionable looks, limited tire clearance.
