This bike is built for racers who demand the ideal balance of aerodynamics, weight, and stiffness. RCR stands for "racer"—because that's who it’s made for.
This is our most advanced bike yet. Designed and tested by aerodynamics experts, it strikes the perfect balance between pure performance and ride enjoyment.
The RCR Range
The RCR lineup is built for cyclists who refuse to compromise. Every tube’s cross-section is engineered for optimal efficiency in key wind angles (-15° to +15°).

The Van Rysel RCR and RCR Pro share the same aggressive race geometry, but the difference comes down to carbon technology. The RCR uses high-modulus carbon for a stiff, efficient ride that delivers speed and responsiveness.

Designed for elite-level racing, the RCR Pro frame is the same one used by Decathlon AG2R’s WorldTour riders.
A Closer Look at the Frame
The RCR frame weight (size M, painted): 1.83 lbs (830 g)
RCR Pro frame weight (size M, painted): 1.74 lbs (790 g)
RCR fork weight (size M, painted): 0.84 lbs (380 g)
- Tire clearance
- Up to 33 mm
Color variations may cause slight weight differences (+/- 0.11 lbs | 50 g)
