Description | Main Features To obtain a winning bike, several factors must be balanced. It's not just a question of lightness, but also of aerodynamics, responsiveness and handling. The V5Rs is the result of the perfect balance of these elements - all performed with a single objective: to win. The Lightest Colnago Ever The V5Rs is the lightest Colnago ever built, with a ready-to-paint frame weighing in at 685 grams. The frame kit weighs 12.5% less than its predecessor, without compromising rigidity. Thinner Profiles The experience gained with the Y1Rs has allowed us to refine the design of the V5Rs, which uses thin, high-performance profiles. In the wind tunnel, its aerodynamic performance is close to that of the best aero frames. Narrow Frontal Area The frontal area of the V5Rs measures 250 cm², 13% less than its predecessor. The evolution of the head tube - now narrower - helps reduce air resistance and save watts. Stiff And Responsive The V5Rs combines lightness and aerodynamics without compromising stiffness and responsiveness, guaranteeing performance suited to the needs of the professional riders of the UAE teams. More Precise Steering The V5Rs has a new fork that is lighter and more precise. The tyre clearance of 32 mm allows the use of wider tyres: more grip, better handling and speed on uneven terrain. Absolute Carbon Quality. Thanks to new lamination techniques, the arrangement of carbon fibres is studied and controlled in every area of the frame. The result is a lightweight, resistant and long-lasting structure. From Race-To-Race Approach The V5Rs has been designed to improve every aspect of riding: weight, aerodynamics, rigidity and handling, taking into account the real needs of racing. The only goal: to win. CFD Optimisation The design of the V5Rs starts with CFD simulations to analyze airflow. The models are developed with the support of universities to reflect real aerodynamic conditions. Prototyping Colnago uses 3D printing to create prototypes based CFD data, allowing for rapid testing and targeted modifications to ensure optimal performance of each component. Validation In The Wind Tunnel The prototypes are tested in teh wind tunnel, even in a competition configuration with manikins. The tests confirm the CFD data and help define further aerodynamic improvements. Validation By Pro Riders The first production models are road tested by professional cyclists to verify that performance remains high even in real conditions and in competition.
