    Thanks Lee,
    I think you'll love yours... A LOT.
    It's the best bike i've ever ridden. I had a 2011 Bianchi Sempre but I cracked the frame... somehow! It was my only bike so I bought a replacement straight away, a Bianchi Impulso also from Epic Cycles. They only had to mention that they had the last Nero available and in my size, SOLD.
    I have to say though that Bianchi's customer service is amazing, they have just sent me a replacement, brand new, 2013 Sempre Pro frameset. Which is now for sale. :wink:

    Last time I was in Epic they had 4 or 5 Oltre's lined up by the windows. They're stunning bikes, fair play to you. God knows how you chose the colour scheme, I liked all of 'em :D

    Just had to copy the image on to this page... That's gorgeous.
    Had I have seen that, before I bought my Venge, I think I may have gone Italian :shock:

    Oh lordy. I love that bike. Pretty much everything is perfect about it. Looks really nicely set up too. Lottery ticket this weekend for me!

    Ohhhh, that is lovely, an Italian mistress is needed to replace my just sold BMC.... but is that THE last Nero one? If not a mistress, it would make an evil twin to my 7 series.

    Epic Cycles do have some black Oltre's in stock but they are not Nero's.
    I still have a massive smile on my face and i've had it for 3 weeks. :D:D:D:D:D
