Bianchi Super GL bike review

Bianchi produced the Super GL bike in 1997 and can be classified as a Mountain bike bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $3,449.00.
Super GL bike is available in many sizes such as 17.5 (inches) and 20 (inches).

This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.10" Michelin Wild Gripper Lite-S kevlar tires and Wheelsmith stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic 211 SUP CD, 32-hole. Bianchi equiped this exact model with Shimano XTR V-Brake brakes, Shimano XTR levers braking system and Shimano XTR hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Bianchi used 7005 aluminum, butted material for the frame. Titec 118 titanium high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Super GL to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Titec T-Slot chromoly.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano XTR, 24/34/46 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-IG90 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Bianchi, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano XTR RapidFire SL gear shift levers.
