The Bianchi e-Oltre 105 12-Speed is the Italian brand’s premier "stealth" e-road machine, designed to satisfy the purist who wants the iconic Oltre aesthetic with a discreet power boost. Built on a high-modulus Oltre e-road carbon frameset, it is visually nearly identical to its "analog" siblings. By utilizing the lightweight Mahle X30 hub motor system, Bianchi has kept the total bike weight down to approximately 12kg, making it one of the most responsive and natural-feeling e-road bikes in the world.
The e-Oltre is finished in the signature Celeste, a sophisticated evolution of Bianchi's classic racing colour that features a modern metallic flake under a matte clear coat. This model strikes a perfect balance by pairing a pro-level aero carbon frame and 50mm Velomann Plutonium carbon wheels with the reliable Shimano 105 12-speed mechanical groupset. It is the ideal choice for riders who want elite aerodynamic performance and the confidence of a rear-hub motor that disappears completely when riding above the assistance limit.

Key Highlights
Invisible Power: The Mahle X30 motor is hidden behind the 11-34T cassette. When viewed from the drive side, it is virtually impossible to tell this is an e-bike, maintaining the clean lines of an Italian superbike.
Pure Road Feel: Unlike mid-drive motors that can feel "robotic," the hub motor design ensures there is zero pedalling resistance once the motor cuts out, allowing you to sprint and descend like a standard road bike.
Velomann Plutonium Carbon: The inclusion of deep-section 50mm carbon wheels at this price point is a major win, providing a massive aerodynamic advantage and that satisfying "whirring" carbon sound at speed.
Aero Cockpit: The Velomann Viper stem and Aero Compact bars provide a semi-integrated cable look that keeps the front of the bike clean and minimizes drag.
