This stunning Sempre Athena features Campagnolo Athena 11 speed components on the great looking Sempre carbon frame for a stylish, performance bike.

The Bianchi Sempre Athena is designed using Bianchi's B4P geometry, which stands for Born For Performance. Which in lay mans terms, means that is geared more towards a fast ride than comfort, but we have found that set up correctly, the Sempre's also give a comfortable ride.

The monocoque frameset is is reinforced in the areas which require stiffness, such as the bottom bracket and headtube, for a confident and responsive ride. The chainstays are ultra thin, the material kept to a minmum where it does not undergo stress, and the bottom bracket is BB30 for great stiffness which helps the responsive nature of the ride.

The B4P geometry leans towards performance rather than comfort, compared with the C2C geometry, the headtube is lower and the top tube is longer, stretching the rider out more than the C2C bikes, but this is not prohibitive to comfort.

The fork features carbon legs for vibration damping and a smooth ride quality, with kevlar tips adding additional damping and ride comfort.

The Campagnolo delivers 11 speed shifting with a compact chainset offering a wide spread of gears on two chainrings, ideal for the sportive rider. The wheelset is Fulcrum Racing 5 for a stiff, reliable and responsive ride.

The saddle is a San Marco saddle, with FSA stem, headset and seatpost featured; all good components.

The Sempre Athena is a stealthy looking, stylish bike, ideal for someone looking for a performance ride whether for racing, sportives or weekend riding.
