I don't think they will destroy other bike brands, those brands are happily doing it themselves.

Huge congratulations to Decathlon for all their hard work over the years. I loved my red Triban back in the day. I see it as the ancestor of these amazing Van Rysel offerings.

I find this really exciting, I want to upgrade to a new bike sometime over the next year or two and can rysel is a real serious option, and I want to support a brand who is making it more accessible to someone like me.

Not just Van Rysel, though I give them credit for breaking the WT monopoly. Others from the far east that have a strong reputation there that are making inroads in the UK/EU market will be hot for 24/25 such as Elves & Yoleo.

I think it's really impressive how quickly they have built the brand and credibility. They have some good high quality kit thats well priced. I'm sure they've put the Willys up the mainstream, brands.

Hope you had a chance to stop by the Bianchi booth, the new Specialissima really knocked my socks off. I know there was some controversy at Roubaix about it but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt when they pinned the problems on faulty assembly.

Wheres the XCR? Cant even find it on the website.

The road lineup from Van Rysel is great, the RCR with new sram force and zipp 404 will cost you 5000 euros in EU...that is insanely great value for what you get...I mean Aeroad with the same groupset and wheels is 7000 Euros. The only problem with VR is that since the bikes are such a great value, it's impossible to get them...and soon enough they will increase their price significantly because of the high demand. And if they follow the footsteps of other bike brands like Factor, Trek, Basso and so on, and give away their bikes for free to bike influencers on instagrams like PUCK Moonen, and yt bike influencers for "honest" bike reviews, well soon enough we will see VR bikes overpriced like the 90% of road bikes today.

Beautiful looking bikes! I hope you will get an opportunity to review one! 🙏

Looks like a winspace

Best benefit is that you can change stem length! Right now I have a Canyon Endurace size M and put an 120mm stem on it. Knowing that the new Endurace are even shorter and with a fixed 100 mm stem it’s out of the question to buy a Endurace because I need long reach and high stack. Looked on Ultimate but the design is ugly with the two color split theme.

Excellent ambassador Pete is for Van Rysel and Decathlon.💯👌🏻✌🏻🚴

My local decathlon (London Canada Water) has a beautiful display area so I got to have a good look at these bikes. very impressed. they look like top quality bikes.

Leuk vlaams fietsje hoor! 👍

Beautiful bike… no doubt about that…. But to be honest the average rider don’t need, can’t feel the difference and can’t get the benefit from a PRO rider frame… it’s just another brand that wants us to think that and thus spend way more money on a bike than we actually need… 90% of all Sunday riders would be perfectly happy with a high quality alloy frame or a mid range carbon frame with 105 Di2… But the bike industry want us to think, that a bike 3 times th price will make us soooo much faster 😑

Nothing on the FCR range?

Will you get one for testing? I would like to see your review.

The van rysel venge is looking good.

We only have the NCR Tiagra version and that $4000+ cream gravel bike here in Canada...

IMHO, they have made a mistake by not calling and branding their gravel bike VR, Riverside sounds like something you would get off a Littlewoods catalogue 😢😢

Shame you didn’t show the xcr/tt bike

They *say* you can buy all this stuff in their stores, but the Decathlon near to me hardly even has any socks available, never mind high end bikes and equipment. I don't think they even have a Triban road bike in there at the moment

Those guys know what they are doing and getting JP and Swissside involved can’t be overestimated and they may just entice Bardet to join.

But they only ship in UK for now? i just asked them on whats app

I'll take any competition that introduces high quality equipment and drives down prices. It remains to be seen if Van Rysel does either of those things, though. The prices are slightly lower but hardly revolutionary. Also, who knows who's actually making these frames and to what quality.

I think Van Rysel deserves to do well and are already obtaining good results in racing.. good pricing compared to the competition and look great quality.. well done Decathlon/Van Rysel/Deda go for it 😊🚴🏻🚴🏻👍always worth remembering though it’s 97% the rider and about 3% the bike. I guess one concern could be resale value and depreciation compared to major brands but only time will tell on that one 😉Pete

Anything from Elves bikes ?

I’ve never heard so much generic mainstream marketing spin! There are so many ‘new' road bikes that look virtually the same and do the same thing for similar prices, eg: Canyon, Giant, to name just two. Where are the interesting new bikes at Sea Otter?

Van Rysel employee can’t pronounce Van Rysel correctly 😂 anyway good to know the sales are good, it’s another proof decent quality bikes can be sold at a fair price

Their road line up is getting really good, but their mtb side is really lacking. They have a not particularly impressive trail bike, some xc bikes, and nothing on enduro or downhill, or a dirtjumper.

Problem with this frame is ultra agressive frame geo, and excessive reach. Unsusable for shorter riders, 380mm reach for size XS is nonsense. But it's designed for WT riders.

Другие бренды заелись, совсем дорогие стали. А Декатлон делает классные байки!!!

Wow

OH GAWD! WHY do they have to have a pressfit bottom bracket?!?! That is soooo 2010's...

will van dysel destroy other bike brand... dayum i clicked fast but than i read it correctly XD

shoes are never on stock xD

15k for a bike , it is a pure madness and I suspect the other brands to price collusion. Decathlon wins with a bike which is 5k less and as stiff and well equipped. All the others brand will have to come back to reality and stop this madness.

I’d rather buy a second hand s-works SL7 for that price

future will be deposits and waiting on a order for 3-4 months like construction manufacturers can't just manufacture hoping for sales or flooding the market we see those risks SPECULATIVE SALES VS ORDERS

Why would it destroy other bike brands? I can get a Giant TCR 105 Di2 for $3500aud right now (effing great deal) whereas their NCR with 105 mechanical is $3800aud converted.

🥰

why use the word "destroy" in negative way? they might as well save them, or save the industry, if prices of decent bikes were to be reduced to sane levels, more people will buy mid range bikes (105 di2, ultegra di2) , eventually they will earn more money, the sales cycle will increase , new tech will make people want to replace and upgrade every 2 years probably and new tech will trickle down as it used to, basic economy...our hobbies are no fun if we need to break our bank account for a decent modern bike, there is no real excuse for a ultegra di2 specie sl8 to cost more than 8000$, its not a car, it's not a motorcycle, it's only a bicycle.

told you it's the best 2023 bike....you ignored....

Don't forget Decathlon's MTB brand Rockrider....as seen in UCI XC MTB racing......

I hope so. Brands got greedy hope they go bust hahe

Is a pressfit BB👎👎

No they won't as they sell out immediately. And not everyone ones the same bike. As we all don't drive the same car.

This is like being able to buy an F1 car. I don't get it. Surely most people do not have the need for such refined race spec equipment? Cycling culture is mad.😂

PF bb, no thank you. I want something modern with T47...

I love your videos David, but this one felt almost like an ad to me. A bit too single sided and promotional for me. Your other content feels more genuine and " honest" : to me. Liked your other sea otter content better.

Well, I wouldn't be so proud of a carbon press fit bb shell in 2024.

When they will got 40 years experience in high level bikes (like other main constructors) then i maybe consider them

That is beyond a shadow of doubt the ugliest bike I've ever encountered, bike manufacturers as a whole are on a downward slope, cycling unfortunately is becoming a money making nightmare, like most other sports. Such a pitty

It cost's same money as similiar range Canyon Aeroad - who the fck would buy this? It should be like 30% cheaper

Clearly, you get what you pay for, right? Their bikes LOOK great, but my personal experience was abysmal. Buyer beware! (Their “RockRider” series, for example, had great colorways and looked pretty good on paper, but in real life were a huge disappointment). Your mileage may vary, of course. I hope you will have better luck than I did.

Pressfit... 👎. Too bad, that's a sexy bike.

Tired, repetitive, formulaic marketing spin heard a zillion times beforehand…affordable, Asian frameset…enough said.
