Winner of two of the world’s most important design awards: the Red Dot and iF Design Awards, the special edition Oltre RC will also be displayed in the Tour de France starting villages, where it will give many race fans the chance to admire it up close at a world premiere.

For cycling fans everywhere, the Tour de France will be an extraordinary opportunity to admire an exclusive bicycle that’s on sale in a limited edition at www.bianchi.com, along with an exclusive accompanying box that includes the official yellow jersey.

Designed for professionals and demanding cyclists alike, the new Oltre RC with “Tour de France limited edition” inscription will also make its race debut during the final stage in Paris. Bianchi has produced eight additional special models intended for the eight professionals racing in the Tour for Team Arkéa-Samsic. The eight models, equipped with original TDF race number and autographed at the end of the Paris stage by each athlete, will be available for purchase.
