Colnago V4RS Shimano Dura Ace 9270 Shimano C50

V4Rs - Built to do just one thing: to win

The V Series Colnago means just one thing: a bicycle made for winning races. Every detail is curated and optimized to let Pro riders dominate the most important races WorldWide, such as Monuments and Tour de France.

This V4Rs is equipped with a Shimano Dura Ace 9270 groupset and Shimano c50 wheels.

Accurate measuring
Colnago created internal methodologies to replicate the loading forces of standing-on-pedals and seated positions, and check the overall frame deformation and stiffness. Colnago were able then to define what they calls RDS (Real-Dynamic Stiffness), and characterize them in combined multi-load conditions.

Seated position
In the seated position, loads are applied only on the same plane of the front triangle to replicate all-round riding: Taking the V3Rs as reference value, the V4Rs results as 5% stiffer in this occasion.

Sprint position
In the sprint position there is a combination of loads applied both on the handlebar and on the bottom bracket, with both component laying on the front triangle plane and normal to the frame plane, aimed to simulate the flexural and torsional stresses at oscillating cambers. Having the V3Rs as reference value, the V4Rs results as 4% stiffer in this particular position.

Robustness
The new V4Rs significantly improves the crash worth of the most exposed parts which may be subjected to impact in racing conditions. An example is given by the completely new designed seat stays, which, besides their more aerodynamic shape, also significantly improve the flexural and impact resistance. The robustness of this design also minimizes the need of maintenance.

Better handling
The weight distribution has changed from the V3Rs. The front fork is now lighter and the overall weight of the frame kit + handlebar setup has been decreased of 56 grams. The result is a better handling in corners and more safety and precision when going downhill.

Easier bike fitting
Geometry has been revised to have even more balanced performance in all the different sizes with respect to the V3Rs. For the V4Rs the relationship between seat tube length and reach is almost linear, the stack / reach ratio has been optimized and harmonized among all the sizes, and the chain stay length has been reduced. This geometry affords a better balance, power transfer and the same race feeling for all the sizes.
