Strengths: Love the internal hub. Shifters are very precise. Hub is quiet. Easy to maintain. Looks cool too! Comfortable seat and bar position. A "quality" bike.Weaknesses: None so far. Do not expect any. It is a BIANCHI.Bottom Line: Great all-around commuter bike. I am a recreational rider only and find this bike very comfortable, has great performance, and is extremely comfortable. The Shimano Alfine 8 speed internal hub shifts easily and has been trouble free. Hard to beat for a "fun to ride" bike!!! Draws attention and good comments everywhere I ride!! 2 of my best friends have purchased this same bike after seeing and riding mine. Internal hub is "the way to go" and look forward to many years of enjoyable riding on my Bianchi!!
Favorite Ride: Bianchi Milano Alfine
Price Paid:
$599.00
Purchased At: Ebay
Similar Products Used: Had a 2007 Bianchi Milano Parco for several years before. Also a great bike but limited by the 3 speeds.
Bike Setup: Pretty much stock. Have some cool Magnesium pedals and a nice front light setup.

Strengths: Gearing is very good. Bike looks and rides great. Hard to refrain from doing impersonation from "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" when rolling downhill on this bike.Weaknesses: Changing rear tire takes some patience and dexterity due to internal hub. Internal hub also requires involvement of local bike shop for adjustments that can normally be done by mechanically adept riders (this excludes me).Bottom Line: This bike always makes me smile. I have made no changes to it other than adding a small mirror. I regularly take it on organized rides of 35-50 miles. You can easily average 16 mph while riding in comfort.

Price Paid:
$600.00

Strengths: Way Kewl looking bike! I'm always getting compliments. love the Nexus hub, Handles great, great brakes, just about everything you could want in a commuter bike.Weaknesses: Rear hub makes it hard to change out a flat, Hard to mount rear rack. Maybe a little pricey, but well worth itBottom Line: I've been an avid cyclist for a number of years and had several different "rides" The Milano is a great commuter, grocery-getter and just plain fun to ride Yeah... maybe a bit of excess for a small island (I live in Key West) but what the heck!

Strengths: Everything!Weaknesses: Absolutely none!Bottom Line: After a long & frustrating search, I have finally found the perfect bike. If you want one bicycle that can do everything,this is it. The Nexxus shifting is as close to perfect as there is. Next to no maintanence & absolutely beautiful. Defintely a "head-turner". This bike just begs to be ridden. Grazzie Bianchi!!!!
