TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
THE BIKE OF THE PROFESSIONAL CYCLISTS IN THE WOLRD TOUR DECATHLON AG2R TEAM
The Van Rysel RCR-R PRO DURA ACE DI2 bike is the model used by riders in the Decathlon Ag2r World Tour Team to excel and win in the world's biggest races.
Only the gear ratio has been adapted for amateur use with 52/36 chainrings.
The RCR-R range
The RCR-R 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-R.
What's the difference between the RCR-R and the RCR-R Pro?
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 frame of the RCR-R, we only use high-modulus fibres. On the RCR-R PRO, we've chosen exceptional fibres that make the bike stiffer in the areas that are put under the most stress and that slightly reduce the weight.
The RCR-R PRO is ready to compete at the highest level.
A closer look at the frame
The RCR-R Pro's frame weighs 790 g (painted) in size M
The RCR-R'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.
COCKPIT
We've specially designed the RCR-R 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)
XXS, XS: 90 x 380
S: 100 X 380
M: 100 x 400
L: 110 x 400
XL: 120 x 400

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.
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.
Disc brakes
Shimano Dura Ace disc brakes with 160 mm discs at the front and 140 mm at the back.
The Dura Ace 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.
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 your nearest store.

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.

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.
