INTRODUCING RCR-F PRO
Apr 06, 2025
Riding The RCR-F Has Never Been So Fast!
The RCR-F Pro was designed to be the fastest bike in the peloton. To achieve this, three aspects were focused on: its aerodynamics, stability, and stiffness. As a result, it performs exceptionally well at very high speeds and will lead you to victory.
Aero Achievement
More than two years of design, numerous back-and-forths between the development workshops, CFD analysis, and wind tunnel testing, all led to the creation of an aerodynamic masterpiece.
- 13 watts compared to the RCR at 28 mph. Such performance places it among the most aerodynamic bikes in the peloton—likely the best.
The engineers at VAN RYSEL also collaborated with SWISS SIDE, an expert in aerodynamics.
Ready for the Sprint
VAN RYSEL engineers designed the RCR-F Pro to dominate sprints.
Thanks to strategic reinforcements with 60T carbon fiber at the front of the frame, you’ll overtake your competitors in the final meters.
The RCR-F Pro is 7% stiffer than the RCR in this key area, ensuring optimal power transfer.
A Unique Combo
The centerpiece: The Van Rysel combo was exclusively designed for the RCR-F Pro. Just like the frame, it went through all the CFD and wind tunnel design phases, saving more than 2.7 watts compared to the RCR combo.
Made in the workshops of Italian artisan Deda, it embodies excellence and performance.
Win the Biggest Classics
The RCR-F complements the RCR. Roubaix, Flanders, San Remo—it's been developed to meet the demands of the greatest classics.
Its preferred terrain? Routes with less than 4,921 feet of elevation gain every 62 miles at an average speed of 22 mph or more.
“The acceleration is linear even above 68 km/h and I haven’t even reached its limits.”
- Sam Bennett, rider of the Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale team

Already victorious in racing
The RCR-F Pro was developed with feedback from the professional riders of the Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale team throughout the 2024 World Tour season.
It has been officially part of the team since the 2025 season, ready to shine at the biggest races on the calendar.
