    Have you tried either or both??

    Where abouts in the country are you? If spending that amount of money then i'd really suggest you need a proper fitting and test session. Epic Cycles in Shropshire list both, and by all accounts are superb and would build the bike exactly how you want and need it. They also fit the bike to you properly

    I've got a Kharma, which is a fantastic bike, so would recommend Kuota's to any one. BUT I would love a Bianchi :)

    As above ride both if you can, I have test ridden the last two bikes I have bought, and just knew they were right. Expensive mistake if you buy one and don't like the way it rides.

    The bianchi OLTRA is sexy

    That is all you need to know

    You also need to know that it's an Oltre, not an Oltra.
    They also do one in the Vacansoleil-DCM colours, so if you can afford one. Get one.

    Nice choice.
    I have to say I drove down from Manchester to Epic to get my bike and fit done, It was a cracking day out and well worth it. Helped that the weather was superb though!
