Bianchi has introduced the Arcadex, a new all-carbon gravel bike that is said to combine off-road capability with speed, ideally designed for extended gravel excursions and bikepacking. The name of the bike takes inspiration from Arcadia, the region of Greek myth that is tied to a vision of harmony with nature. The new model has clearance for 700×42 or 650×47 tires, which is meant to deliver the necessary scope to tackle any rough terrain. The bike features eyelets for the installation of mudguards and a rear rack. The Arcadex is available in two color options (gold storm or classic celeste), both of which inspired by the wilderness, the company explained.
