Price Range

Frame Material

Carbon

Built for the most demanding, most ambitious, most unrelenting competitors, the Oltre is nothing short of a revolution in the way we think about aerodynamics.

AS FAST AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE

In the quest for aero the most critical aspect is the human body, which increases drag more than any part of the bike. The Oltre’s precision-engineered design tackles this head-on. The handlebar and Air Deflectors reduce the drag of the athlete, amplifying the efficiency and power of every pedal stroke.

ELITE INNOVATION

A pioneering system which not just manages, but dominates the drag. This means great performance in a dead-straight line, but when the angle of the wind changes to either side, the bike truly comes alive. The Air Deflector (Patent Pending) can be found on RC and Pro models of the Oltre.

AERODYNAMIC EDGES

The proprietary design of the cockpit reduces drag. It does this with integration of the handlebar and stem, and strategically-placed Aero Profiles along the top of the bar. These Aero Profiles are placed to reflect the flow of air over your bars, and offer an additional marginal aerodynamic gain.

REVOLUTIONARY DESIGN THINKING

To create an aero bike that controls airflow, we borrowed ideas from innovative technology sectors, including automotive, aerospace and even 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.
