The color is bluish purple. The bike has horizontal scratching at the top of the seat tube in the inner (front) half of the seat tube, as if lightly sanded, partially obscuring the Bianchi logo (this is from the U-lock clip rubbing and adjusting against the seat tube over the years). The bike has drop bars with brake handle paddle shifters. I replaced the standard purple/black carbon fork with an all-black steel fork about two years ago due to the fork getting disconnected from the handle bars internally. The handle bars are Ritchey brand. At the time of the theft, I had a suspension attachment within the seat tube, I believe the brand was Satori. The bike has an FSA Pro Road S9/C10 42t Triple Middle Chainring in black color, and the cassette is a SRAM PG-970 9-Speed Cassette 11/32. Please note that the photos here are from before I replaced the adjustable angled quill stem with a more normal right-angle stem.
