The Bianchi Oltre Race 105 12sp is the entry point into Bianchi’s high-performance aero category. While the flagship Oltre models focus on extreme "Air Deflector" technology, the Oltre Race is designed to provide the everyday cyclist with a streamlined, wind-cheating profile that remains practical and easy to maintain. The frame features deep-section tube profiles and an integrated seat clamp that flushes into the top tube, minimizing turbulence and ensuring that every ounce of effort is converted into forward momentum.
For this iteration, Bianchi has paired this aero-efficient frameset with the Shimano 105 12-speed mechanical groupset. This choice emphasizes reliable, tactile shifting for riders who prefer the simplicity of a cable-actuated system over electronic alternatives. Oltre Race is a purpose-built speed machine that brings professional-grade aerodynamics to the enthusiast racer.

Key Technologies
Aero-Optimized Tubes: The frame's down tube and seat tube are shaped to "shield" the water bottles and rear wheel from the wind, significantly reducing drag at high speeds.
Full ICR System: Cables enter through the headset spacers and run entirely inside the frame, providing a clean aesthetic and improved aerodynamic efficiency.
Dedicated Aero Seatpost: Unlike standard round posts, the Oltre Race uses a proprietary carbon post that slices through the air and provides a stiffer platform for sprinting.
Fulcrum Racing 800 Wheels: A 34mm mid-depth alloy wheelset that provides a noticeable aerodynamic advantage over standard shallow rims without being overly sensitive to crosswinds.
