It was only a matter of time. With the fantastic start to the season that Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale is having, the French brand did not want to miss the opportunity to take advantage of the popularity of one of the trendiest teams and launches a version of its Van Rysel RCR Pro for sale with an assembly identical to that used by the French squad, including their spectacular Swiss Side wheels.

Emulate the cyclists of Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale with the replica edition of the Van Rysel RCR Pro

If the top-of-the-line assembly that Decathlon offered for its Van Rysel RCR Pro, with SRAM Red and spectacular Zipp wheels, was already a true spectacle, the French brand now doubles down and launches a replica edition, with an assembly identical to that being used by riders like Cosnefroy, O'Connor, or one of the season's revelations like Paul Lapeira who have already achieved victory in no less than 9 occasions, two of them in World Tour events, on this Van Rysel RCR Pro.

A bike that has marked a before and after in the level of bicycles manufactured by Decathlon, for which the brand has relied on collaborations such as the French Aerospace Laboratory ONERA or the aerodynamics experts at Swiss Side to achieve a fast aerodynamic bike that combines, following the current trend of aerolight bikes, with a weight and stiffness that allow it to perform at the level of the best even on the steepest slopes.

This replica edition used by Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale is equipped, like the bikes of the French team, with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, obviously with the power meter crankset version. The only difference in the group compared to that used by the professionals is the gear ratios chosen with 52/36 chainrings, suitable for most humans, compared to the 54/40 usually used by riders. Chainrings that are combined with an 11-34 cassette to provide more than enough range to tackle almost any slope.

However, the real difference of this Van Rysel RCR Pro compared to those in Decathlon's catalog are its Swiss Side Hadron2 Ultimate 500 wheels, true top-of-the-line wheels in which the Swiss brand has poured all its expertise in aerodynamics to further enhance the performance of the frame when cutting through the air.

This bike can already be found on pre-sale on Decathlon's own website starting on April 16 at 11 a.m. with a price of 9069.99 euros, a bike that, despite its aerodynamic qualities, weighs in at a spectacular 6.910 kg according to the brand's own data.
