Thoughts that
call to mind deeds of heroic and exhilarating
competitiveness, from the past, but most importantly from
the present; moments of sports and victories, of technology
lived with immense passion which today becomes a reality
thanks to the cooperation of two legendary Italian brands: Bianchi Reparto Corse and Ducati Corse.
Both share common values of stubborn
dedication, of searching for performances mated with the
desire to enhance the relationship between man and
technology; these are the basic ingredients that have made
this all-time and unique project concrete and feasible. The
outcome is a range of bicycles with a strong personality,
unique in terms of technology and results on the road. Ducatisti, Bianchisti and all those seeking products for
great performances and with a character are sure to be
satisfied.
The Technology
The motorcycling experience in materials, geometry and
details pointed out the path to follow from the very
beginning. Ultimate technology, exclusive and rigorously
tested. Essential design targeting the absolute search for
performance. Weights at the limit and great rigidity in
order to avoid losing even a Watt of power. High-modulus
carbon fibre MR60 and HR40 employed with Tube-to-Tube
technology, which guarantees precision couplings between the
single tubing and maximum control of the reinforcement
fibres, allowing for an extremely high ratio between
rigidity and weight (just 900 grams for the road frame, in
size 55 format). Hydro-forming aluminium for stiffness
beyond all limits and for the purpose of guaranteeing
accurate dimensional control of the tubing compared to the
traditional drawing systems. Hyperalloy aluminium alloy, in
order to obtain safety and lightness (1380 grams for the MTB
frame), at the same time.

Four Racing bicycles, three MTBs and one Street
Bike. A single colour solo: red; and the names,
taken from the motorcycling world past and present. |

Bianchi Reparto Corse and Ducati Corse, two Italian
brands which both boast a highly successful history
at the peak of their respective disciplines, have
teamed up to create a special series race of road
and racing bicycles. |

The only one alloyed with zinc and magnesium capable of
offering unbeatable performance in terms of stiffness and
stress resistance (50 percent more compared to the normal
alloys available today on the market).
The Models
Four Racing bicycles, three MTBs and one Street Bike. A
single colour solo: red. The names, taken from the
motorcycling world past and present, are sure to conquer
even the less attentive consumer: Factory, Factory 900,
Factory 900R, Factory 900XR for the racing bikes. Factory as
the name of the official racing motorcycles that Ducati
Corse outfits for both the Motorcycling GP and the Superbike
world championship. Scrambler 140, Scrambler XS, Scrambler
XR, for the MTBs. And Scrambler to suggest one of the most
successful models in the great history of Ducati.
An
eclectic motorcycle, suitable for mixed terrains but most
importantly boasting excellent cycling features. A synonym
of unequalled performances and timeless Italian style. A
tribute to history, which has never been so up to date. Panigale for the unique and trendy Street bike of the range.
Borgo Panigale identifies the area on the outskirts of
Bologna that has always been the headquarters of the
historical Dcati plant. A tribute for a city bike destined
to define a new urban style of experiencing the bicycle.
