Van Rysel 2025 FCR

[Eterna7m]

I want to revive this thread based on the official announcement of the bike: https://www.bikeradar.com/news/van-rysel-rcr-f

Guess it will be called RCR-F instead of FCR. Passes the eye test with flying colors for me. Curious about the weights.

Your eyes don't pass the test with regards to the ability to read the last couple of posts ....

The last posts are from July when the prototype was spotted at the tour? How does that disqualify my comment?

Oh oops my bad. Confused the two van rysel threads. Excuse me.

Can only really go off looks right now until people start getting their hands on it, but I think it looks almost perfect. Just a no-nonsense aero race bike.

That marble/smokey paint is cool too. I wonder if it will be available in that color.

I still can't get over how wide the headtube is

Spiritual successor to the Venge?

Anyone know if the XCR helmet is road (non-TT) legal? It looks a LOT like the new POC aero helmet.

What do you mean by road legal? Nobody's gonna srop you from wearing it yourself and UCI have no rules for helmets distinctions. Riders could be using TT helmets in road races if they wanted to.

I had no idea UCI approved TT helmets were permissable in normal UCI sanctioned road events. I guess that explains how POC gets away with basically being a TT helmet.
