Van Rysel's product page still repeats much of the first RCR-F Pro's text, so only the details it states for this bike are recorded here.

Our verdict
Overall
out of 100, average of 7 categories
Van Rysel's new-generation aero bike keeps the first RCR-F's formula of a one-piece cockpit, a power meter and deep Swiss Side wheels for less than most rivals. For now there is one build, no geometry in text and product copy carried over from the old bike, so it is hard to say what changed.
