Summary

With no World Tour teams currently riding Bianchi bicycles, Tom looks at the fascinating history of one of the world's oldest bicycle manufacturer. Not many brands inspire as much passion as Bianchi and so Tom seeks to understand why with the help of design historian and author Charlotte Fiell. He also speaks to Bianchi collectors and fans and learns the true origins of the brand's iconic celeste colour.
