The Van Rysel RCR-F is the brand's all-out aero bike and the weapon of choice for the latest French prodigy to break onto the WorldTour scene, Decathlon CMA CGM's Paul Seixas (alongside Van Rysel's new prototype that we spotted at the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes last month).
Senior Tech Writer Will Jones recently took this bike to the French Alps to put it through its paces on some of the roads that Seixas and the rest of the Tour de France peloton will be tackling this week.
What's more, we've also tested this Van Rysel aero machine in the wind tunnel at the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub. Will combines that data with his Alpine testing to bring you a comprehensive video review, assessing the bike's main strengths and potential flaws, and ultimately, questioning whether it's worth handing over your well-earned money for one!
