Below, I’ve linked the best Decathlon deals and also added the Shimano 105 DI2-equipped RCR-R. That scored a 4-star rating in our Van Rysel RCR-R review, and is a great option as one of the best budget road bikes, currently with a 27% discount, down to just £3,299, and a saving of £1,200.

It’s worth noting that these bike deals seem to be flying off the shelves as sizing is limited, so we’d suggest moving fast if you’re considering pulling the trigger on any of these Van Rysel bikes.

Will Jones, Cyclingnews’ Senior Tech Writer, rated the Van Rysel RCR-F with a 4 out of 5 star review, and although (at full price) it had a few flaws, he reckoned it was still undoubtedly “very fast”. Will also noted the RCR-F had a stiffer front end, ready to handle your best sprint efforts, and was overall a “high-quality package”, which at its discounted price is now even better.

The RCR-F Pro comes equipped with Shimano Ultegra Di2, and its wind tunnel-developed Super High Mod Carbon frame rolls on one of the best road bike wheels from Swiss Side, and its Hadron² 625 Classic carbon wheels. These are 50mm deep-section, tubeless-compatible wheels known for their aerodynamic performance, and come paired with Continental GP5000 S TR tyres.

The RCR-R Pro Team Edition not only comes in the stunning Decathlon AG2R paint job, but also has an equally impressive spec sheet, including a Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 groupset, and with Shimano’s top shifting and braking power, it makes this price very appealing.

Elsewhere, the RCR-R has an integrated Shimano FC-R9200-P power meter, Swiss Side Hadron² Ultimate 500 wheels, and the same GP5000 tyres.
