Bianchi Impulso RC Gravel Bike

Gravel, Faster

nThe Binachi Impulso RC is made for elite gravel racers and tuned it for those who demand the holy trinity of aerodynamic performance, low weight, and off-road capability. In order to win gravel races, you need a machine that is engineered for the task. Fitted with RC43 aero wheels and offered in metallic celeste accented with classic celeste, the Impulso RC is that machine.
n
nRoad aerodynamic lessons learned from the Oltre RC and Specialissima RC have been applied to the Gravel Impulso. Throw in an integrated fork and specifically crafted aero wheelset, and you have one of the most aerodynamic gravel bikes in its category.

Total Control

nOn fast gravel race parcours, you need to have total control. Reparto Corse devoted significant resources to enhancing the cockpit system of the Impulso RC, putting the power to win in your grasp.
n
nOn the re-engineered Impulso, Bianchi focused on the stiffness of the cockpit system to achieve a much better racing feel and advanced control. Plus the 16° flare of the bars helps give the rider extra control on technical downhill sections.

RC43s

nThe Impulso RC comes equipped with the perfect pair of aerodynamic Reparto Corse gravel wheels. A 43mm profile is combined with a 25mm internal width for wider tires and lower pressures, reducing the risk of punctures in the heat of the competitive action. This also lends greater control on the most technical sections of a given gravel race parcours.
n
nRC43 wheels deliver impressive rigidity and a streamlined profile, with a notable impact on the overall speed of the bike. The hubs are high-end Ceramitech with ceramic ball bearings. The construction is full high-modulus carbon with a 3K carbon finish and with high-end sealed cartridge ceramic bearings in the hubs. The wheelset weighs an impressive 1,570g (±5%).
