The Bianchi Specialissima RC frame is a true next-generation all-rounder : incredibly lightweight, responsive on climbs, aerodynamic on both trail and flat surfaces, with a geometry designed to ensure agility and stiffness. An excellent choice for those seeking maximum climbing performance without sacrificing speed and control on normal sections and technical descents.

Ultralight HM carbon frame (~750g size 55, unpainted), with an excellent stiffness-to-weight-to-comfort ratio thanks to the vibration-damping Countervail material
Internal cable routing (Acros ICR system) for clean aesthetics and aerodynamic optimization
Flat-mount direct-mount brakes and PressFit 86.5×41 mm bottom bracket
The frame design aims to be both light and aerodynamic: the effect is maximized on low-level terrain and moderate climbs thanks to tapered front tubes and geometry materially redistributed towards the front.
Compared to the previous generation, an estimated saving of 8.7 seconds over 10 km at a 6% gradient at 200 W , and 31 s over 40 km on flat ground for the same wattage. Elite cyclists save up to 3.6 W at speeds of 30 km/h on a 6% gradient.
The doping between aerodynamics and weight means that the Specialissima RC surpasses even the Oltre RC in efficiency on gradients of 4–6%.
