Description

Design details

The RCR range
The RCR range is a real treat for cyclists who want a complete bike with no compromises. For this bike, performance was our priority. The cross-sections of every tube have been calculated to be as efficient as possible in the main wind angles (-15°/+15°). This bike falls into the aero-light category: an optimum balance of lightness, rigidity and aerodynamics has been found to make this an exceptional bike. If you want a bike designed to win races, look no further than the RCR
RCR Pro Frameset
What makes a carbon frame is its geometry, its shapes and its layup. The layup is how the carbon fibres are assembled. Not all fibres have the same properties. On the RCR PRO, we've chosen exceptional super-high modulus fibres that make the bike stiffer in the areas that are put under the most stress and that slightly reduce the weight. The RCR Pro frame is used by riders in the Decathlon Ag2r world tour team.
SWISS SIDE HADRON3 550 CLASSIC WHEELS
Drawing on its F1 experience, Swiss Side combines Swiss engineering prowess with the best components to offer the most high-performance wheels on the market. They guarantee minimal drag, with unrivalled stability in the wind.

A closer look at the frame
The RCR Pro's frame weighs 790 g (painted) in size M The RCR Pro's fork weighs 380 g (painted) in size M The frame can take tyres up to 32 mm wide. There may be variations in weight depending on the colours (+/- 50 g). PLEASE NOTE: Carbon frames must not be secured on the top tube, seat tube and down tube using a clamp (workshop stand, bike carrier). Carbon is a very rigid material but it does not withstand compression.
Tubeless or inner tube
We recommend switching your tyres to tubeless using the tubeless valve that comes with this bike. Tubeless is more comfortable and more efficient, and the tyres can self-repair when you get small punctures. Of course, you should always carry an inner tube in your repair kit, just in case your tyre gets a slightly bigger puncture.
SEVERAL FINISHES TO CHOOSE FROM
Depending on the groupset and wheel configuration, we offer different finishings to choose from so that you can ride in a model you styled yourself. The RCR PRO frames come in a raw Carbon finish with a matte varnish. This means that the carbon fibres are visible since they are not covered by paint. Every frame is unique as the 450 pieces are individually laminated by hand in the mould, which saves up to 100 g.
SHIMANO ULTEGRA DI2 GROUPSET + INPEAK POWER SENSOR
This RCR is equipped with a full Shimano Ultegra DI2 12S groupset. A power meter is a must for cyclists who want to plan their training to help them improve. We chose INPEAK sensors for their reliability and excellent accuracy. In this case, the Inpeak Powercrank-E single (left crank) https://www.inpeak.pl/fr/sklep/capteur-de-puissance-powercrank-e-single-custom/ Total drive train weight: 2717 g

Lifespan of a drive train
When buying a bike, it's important to take into account the cost of servicing it, especially as regards the drive train. The amounts below are averages and are given so that you have a general idea of what to expect. They will of course vary depending on the care you take of your drive train. The average lifespan of a well-maintained chain is 5000 km. The average lifespan of a cassette is 10,000-12,000 km. A poorly maintained chain can jump, which can damage your bike's frame.
Drive train maintenance
Please note that it is important to regularly service your drive train, especially if you ride in difficult conditions (wet and/or dirty roads). Regular maintenance will help your drive train to last for longer. You should regularly check your chain with our chain wear indicator, which is available on our website.
COCKPIT
We've specially designed the RCR Pro's cockpit with our partner Deda to improve the aerodynamics by reducing the front surface while ensuring optimal ergonomics at the 3 contact points (levers, top of handlebar and drops). The housing is fully internally routed for a streamlined effect. The Deda X VR combo depends on the frame size: (stem length x handlebar width) XS: 90 x 380 S: 90X 400 M: 100 x 400 L: 110 x 400 XL: 120 x 400
Position
RCR carbon seat post Dimensions by bike size: XXS: 271 XS: 316 S: 331 M: 356 L/XL: 406 FIZIK ARGO VENTO R5 saddle or FIZIK ANTARES R5 saddle, depending on version. These racing saddles developed in partnership with professional racers have a short nose to promote stability and relieve pressure on the soft tissue area. Weight: 225 g (140 mm)
Disc brakes
Shimano Ultegra RTCL 800 disc brake with 160 mm discs in front and 140 mm in back. The ULTEGRA disc brakes are hydraulic. This gives you more progressive, more powerful braking. You will need to bed these brakes in. Simply brake gradually 20 times at a low speed (20 km/h), then repeat at 30 km/h. Make sure to bed in both brakes. Bedding in creates more friction between the disc and brake pad.
CONTINENTAL GP 5000 S TLR TYRE
Ride faster, more comfortably and with even greater puncture resistance with the Continental GP5000 S tubeless ready tyres 700x28C: pressure between 4 and 6.5 bar 280 g
Hydraulic brake maintenance
Hydraulic brakes function using a closed circuit between your brake lever and your caliper. There is a hose to maintain the seal. With time, you'll see a normal loss of pressure in your hoses, leading to a loss of braking efficiency. When your brake guard is too soft, or you stop short against your handlebar, you need to bleed your system. This requires specific tools and knowledge.
Warning and adjustment
Please note: never squeeze the brakes without a wheel being attached, as you could get the brake pads stuck together. If the rotor is touching the pads, here's how to realign the caliper: - Brake hard and tighten the caliper at the same time - If the problem persists, go to the nearest store.
Which size?
Please refer to the bike frame geometry table. If you're between sizes, a shorter bike is better if you want something more responsive and lively. However, if you want to be comfortable when riding long distances, the bigger size is your best bet.
