PANTANI, PER SEMPRE
Celeste and yellow. Two colours with the power to inspire. Together, they recali o moment in myth. Together, they speck the names Bianchi and Pantani.
In the year of our 140th anniversary, we choose to honour one of the most legendary cyclists ever to race on a Bianchi bicycle. And there is no finer nor more fitting bicycle to bear the iconic livery of Marco Pantani's own Bianchi Mega Pro XL - used in his 1998 Giro-Tour double-winning season - than the Specialissima RC.

CELEBRATINE THE LEGEND
No discussion of Bionchi's heritage could be complete without the nome Pantani. And no mention of Marco posses without the instont association of celeste and yellow, floshing by as he soored up the mountain.

LIMITED EDITION
The edition comprises 215 bikes, the number of kilometres of stage 17 of the 1998 Giro. This was the moment that Marco seized the lead of the race, taking the pink jersey and the overall win four days later. The mountaintop finish was at the iconic Selva di Val Gardena (won by Italian, Beppe 'Turbo' Guerini).
Initially an edition of just 101 - the number Pantani wore when he won the 1998 Giro - Bianchi has been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm from cycling fans to be a part of this moment.
By making additional Specialissima RC Pantani bicycles available, we invite more tifosi around the world to join the celebration.
Each frame is numbered at the top of the down tube, near the head tube.
Included with each of the 215 Specialissima RC Pantani bicycles:
Bandana: A faithful recreation of Pantani's emblematic bandana, worn at the beginning of stages and, according to legend, thrown down onto the asphalt when the climbing battle began to intensify.
Replica jersey: Made by Santini, this beautiful jersey pays homage to the one worn by Marco Pantani and his teammates during the 1998 season.
