That's a nice bike. I really like your choice of cranks. I'm new back to cycling after a very long time and I've never seen a bolt on cog before. Care to share any details?

Hi, thanks - I love the way it's turned out - I wanted to avoid obvious chainset options (omnium or 75) as they're a bit generic so the Aero Mighty fits the bill & the chainring is ex. GB Olympics so there's provenance too!
The rear hub is a mountainbike hub for disc brakes with a new (longer) axle and some spacers to get chainline right. The cog is a Velosolo (made here in the UK) but I'm sure there are sources everywhere.
It's a simple practical option and saves you worrying around stripping lockring cogs etc.
Here are a couple of links if you're interested in disc-cogs.

Cheers - It's my everyday ride so it needs to be solid and simple whilst still putting a smile on my face on a cold rainy morning!
Love your Bianchi Genius by the way superlight steel from that era is unbeatable!

Cheers Oli,
Disc/riser build is my favourite so far - it cheers-up the morning commute too! - catching the reflection in a shop window is guaranteed to raise a smile.
