Bianchi Oltre RC Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 12S Black/CK16 - Reparto Corse 65-50

The revolution of the new Oltre starts from the fully integrated handlebar design. The central hole and aerodynamic profiles placed in the upper part of the fold channel the flow to improve efficiency in the frontal impact area with the air.

Exclusive to Bianchi worldwide, the Air Deflectors integrated into the sides of the head tube divert the air flow and create a low pressure zone to guarantee greater speed with less effort.

The improvements of the Oltre Pro Compared to the XR4

-17.1 watts at 50 kilometers per hour

- 5.1% Coefficient of Aerodynamic Resistance in crosswind situations

- 45 seconds over a distance of 40km

6.850kg weight in size 55

+30% aerodynamic gain compared to the best aero bikes on the market when the wind angle changes direction

Every detail of the Oltre has been calculated, analyzed and optimized to maximize pedaling efficiency. Bianchi has worked on each section of the frame to extract the maximum performance potential from the new Oltre.

In addition to the handlebar, the set-up of the Oltre is completed with the new Reparto Corse wheels and the new RC139 Carbon Air saddle with carbon shell and pad made with 3D technology.

The study of perfect aerodynamic performance starts from the analysis of how the surface of the bike impacts only 20% on the total resistance while the remaining 80% is given by the mass of the athlete.

The new Air Deflectors create a low pressure zone at the rear of the head tube and offer a great advantage in frontal wind situations but not only: in fact, it is when the wind angle assumes a lateral direction that the new Oltre it comes to life.

The specific shape of the handlebar reduces aerodynamic resistance. This happens thanks to the integration of the handlebar and the stem, made harmonious by the hole placed centrally to the handlebar. From this, in fact, a double vortex is generated at the top tube which reduces the pressure of the air flow hitting the athlete's legs: in this way less power will be needed to create more speed.

To create an aerodynamic bicycle that controls airflow, Bianchi borrowed ideas from innovative technology sectors, such as automotive, aerospace engineering and architecture. The goal is to direct the air into very specific areas of the frame in order to avoid the formation of forces that oppose the athlete's action. The extreme design is enhanced by a balanced use of paint and visible carbon sections: aesthetic choices that confirm Oltre's racing character without penalizing the overall weight of the bike.
