Bianchi OLTRE PRO – Ultegra Di2 – Carbon Road Bike – 2024 – Soft Black / CK16

 

 

Expert’s Choice

To create an aero bike that controls airflow, Bianchi borrowed ideas from innovative technology sectors, including automotive, aerospace and architecture. The goal is to lead the air to very specific areas of the frame, ensuring airflow is as close to the surfaces of the bike and rider as possible. The far-thinking design is enhanced by a judicious balance of paint and exposed carbon, creating a fearsome racing aesthetic that never for a second compromises on the overall weight of the Oltre.

The Oltre Pro shares the same construction principles as the top-of-the-line RC model and features Air Deflector technology and a new aero handlebar. The frame incorporates the Bianchi CV vibration cancellation system into the carbon fiber, which increases riding comfort for a less extreme rider. 

The layup of the frame combines carbon fiber with Countervail a revolutionary damping material that is exclusive to Bianchi. Once you’ve done a few miles on this Bianchi frame, you’ll know: Countervail is the real deal. Typical road vibrations that cause wear and fatigue are noticeably reduced with Bianchi’s Countervail frames. With the Infinito CV, you can simply ride longer with less physical discomfort.

Leading the way in aerodynamics

The Oltre was developed using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation software to predict the effects of drag and was wind tunnel tested.

Each movement refined

Each detail of the Oltre is considered, analysed and refined, amplifying the efficiency and power of every pedal stroke. From the down tube to the seat post to the dropouts, every marginal gain has been harnessed.

Countervail technology

The Bianchi CV Vibration Cancelling System combines viscoelastic material with a special carbon fiber architecture to disperse vibrations. The benefits to the rider are more control, less muscle fatigue and more energy. Bianchi CV suppresses 80% of vibrations while increasing the stiffness and strength of carbon frames and forks. Tested in all racing situations.

Conventional passive damping in frames with superficial rubber inserts and isolators are only partially effective compared to the integrated vibration cancelling system developed by Bianchi for cycling and tested in extreme conditions.
