Test Model: Bianchi eOmnia FX-Type

When we first heard over a year ago we would be receiving some of the first Bianchi eBike’s in the U.S., we immediately thought of the Tour de France winning Drop Bar Road Bikes. Bianchi is a legend in producing the finest quality Road Bikes ever!

We started to research more of what would be available, and were excited to see a Hard Tail and Full-Suspension Mountain eBikes listed. We have brought in an initial Test Model to share with our customers for consideration as we begin ordering and stocking Bianchi models for 2023.

This is the Bianchi e-Omnia FX-Type. We like the shorter names of models Bianchi has. Some manufacturers require a spelling and annunciation test to say the model name.
