Odd design

Isn't it.

I listed it a few days ago, as I'd not seen anything like it.

However, if you look in the e-stay thread, there is a Mantis in there which is not a million miles away.

Bet it would have more bids if it wasn't so .... pink.
 
I put a little info on the Bianchi Ragno range here:

I want one, but will wait and see if I find a bargain Araneus.

The non e-stay Mantis Valkyrie may well be my dream bike, but I've not seen one for sale!

My immediate thought was that it was a ladies frame, it took a few minutes to realise which bit of the frame was "missing".
And yes the pinkness will be putting people off, it would be a shame to re paint it another colour though.
 
Mine has now escaped from the boot of my car and is now hanging on the wall, I keep looking at it but as yet not come up with any cunning plans for it,
130mm rear end on these :?

That colour scheme is a vast improvement.

If the ebay one looked like that, I would have been tempted, but not in... pink
 
I prefer the green but I do kinda like the pink one too :oops: i've got some nice pink grips and cable outer that would go a treat on it :lol:
 
Errrmm, I just added it to my watchlist, the more I look at it the more I like it, same size as my green one, I really am feeling the start of a new collection here :lol: and it's not far from me either :oops:
