This popped up in another conversation but I see it as relating to this one too: Bianchi (Nth?) in Columbus Genius at 1256 grams must be one of the lightest MTB frames there ever was. At least, I haven't seen a lighter one from Columburs, Tange or Reynolds since. I stand to be corrected...

I got a Serotta T-Max I am planning to let go soon but not sure it's 19". Let me know if interested.

So cool! The Suntour Cantis are top! I love mine and how less they flex the seatstay pivots.

This should be forked to have Darwin awards for social media platforms too. It's never too late. The whole demise of political discourse traces back to social media and the effect they have had on our brains if you ask me.

Managed a 45 km gravel ride just before the rain started. Really had to append hard at the end to escape the storm.

For me the best all day MTB rider I have tried so far is the Brodie Sovereign. I am of the philosophy that you should configure your steeds to match the terrain you have easier access to. In my case that’s mostly gravel routes with some small MTB trails. So no suspension is needed. I can’t...

Really sweet! True temper all the way. I find the stem a bit too steep but if it works for you…let us know if ride impressions!

A solid reading and big refute of the video posted earlier that visualises the AI 2027 is Gary Marcus’s analysis of it: https://garymarcus.substack.com/p/the-ai-2027-scenario-how-realistic

It's a shame although it could be repaired for around 300 euros here in Belgium. Only thing is the welder I know works with filet brazing only. No TIG.

Really long head tube for it's size which is one thing I started appreciating a lot in retro MTBs lately. There are not many from that time that had this. Great find anyhow. Looks stunning...put up a build thread if you have some more pics!

I would say so too as this area is pressed:

This probably explains why I only had one BoTM entry with my Sovereign, and only got 2 votes of out which 1 was mine... 🫢:eek::LOL: I just like to keep changing parts and see what works best regardless of how bastardised the end result turns out to be. From STX all the way to XTR I could use...

Hey Phil, I am sidelining a bit here but should you decide to let go the above rig can you please let me know? Such a stunner!

Hi all, I recently came across this thread in the German forum. The idea is one picture per post. No text. Show us your legs laying on the top tube! I could not find a similar one here I thought so I thought to start it! There it goes with the first pic from me:

And price seems reasonable!

ok so it's this one: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/bianchi-nth-reparto-corse-columbus-genius-1996.454356/ It's got to be one of the lightest steel frame in production for an MTB BITD. Haven't seen another one so light. Strange too, as NEMO was actually even lighter as its seatstays and...

Also guys, is it me or I am just getting crazy? There actually is a steel tubeset that is as light as a titanium frame and lighter than most: If that's true it's crazy!

Wow! What a beast of a machine this is: Just discovered this thread and TBH never new of this Bianchi...
