Know before you buy
While the RCR-F Pro is engineered for competitive racing, its geometry is balanced enough for long training rides. However, because it prioritizes stiffness and aerodynamics, you may find it less forgiving on rough roads compared to a dedicated endurance bike.
The integrated cockpit is designed for clean aesthetics and aero performance, which limits adjustability compared to traditional two-piece setups. If you need to change your reach or bar width, you will likely need to replace the entire cockpit unit.
The frame is designed to accommodate modern road tire widths, typically up to 30mm or 32mm depending on the rim profile. We recommend checking the specific rim-to-tire compatibility to ensure you maintain adequate clearance for debris.
The bike comes tubeless-ready, meaning the rims are compatible with a tubeless setup. Depending on the specific regional configuration, you may need to add sealant and valves to complete the conversion.
High-modulus carbon is used to maximize stiffness and minimize weight, which makes the bike incredibly responsive during sprints and climbs. This rigidity provides excellent power transfer, though it does transmit more road vibration than frames with more compliant carbon layups.
