The Bianchi Oltre XR4 is an elite aero road bike. It is for the riders looking for the best results in terms of speed on the road. With a balance of aerodynamic features and lightweight climbing ability, this bike nestles into the aero road bike category without losing the qualities that make it a great climber. It is built around Bianchis most aerodynamic frame to date and was created using Computational Fluid Dynamic software to consider various iterations of geometry and tube shape. The wind tunnel was utilized to finally settle on what became the Oltre XR4. As a result, every watt you crank into this bike will take you closer to your goals. With a new fork profile and headtube shaping, there is no question that Bianchi is making moves in the aero world.
A huge bright spot of Bianchis top bikes is their Countervail integrated vibration canceling system. This patented viscoelastic material is incorporated within the carbon and cancels up to 80 percent of vibrations you would typically experience on the road. The cancellation of these vibrations will keep your muscles from fatiguing for longer so you can keep your best pace mile after mile. Less vibration also means that you will have the maximum stiffness through the frame and fork of your Oltre XR4 so you can reap the full benefits of its aerodynamic design. This type of consistency creates perfect handling in any weather or conditions.
Thanks to Countervail, this bike also has outstanding stability. If you are looking for an aero advantage on the road with lightweight climbing ability and amazing stabilization, look no further than the Bianchi Oltre XR4. This version is equipped with a Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset for quality electronic road shifting. It also has Fulcrum ARacing 400 disc wheels which contribute to speed without pushing the price up. As the oldest bicycle manufacturer in the world, Bianchi has had more time than anyone to evolve. This bike is another example of their ability to get ahead of the rest. Anyone looking for a fast aero road bike with a bit of extra comfort can benefit from the Oltre XR4.
