How do I choose the right size for my bike?
Choosing the right bike size depends not only on your height, but also on your morphology (leg length and arm span). This bike has been optimized for women's morphology.
XS 155 165 cm
S 165 173 cm
M 173 182 cm
L 182 190 cm
If you're between 2 sizes, taking the smallest will give you a sportier position, the largest a more comfortable one.
Frame
The frame's geometry will enable you to start riding with maximum comfort. As the head tube is higher and the top tube shorter than a conventional road frame, you'll lean less on your bike and ride more upright.
Frame weight in M size: 1930gr
Aluminium 6061 T6 sloping with semi-integrated headset.
Fork
The carbon fork ensures lightness and precision in your riding.
The 1"1/8 aheadset pivot ensures great strength and rigidity in the cockpit.
The fork has an insert on each side, allowing you to mount certain luggage racks and mudguards.
Maximum weight carried on the fork: 9kg.
Handlebars/stem/steering
The ergonomic handlebars provide a better grip and excellent comfort.
The handlebar widths (narrower than those of men's bikes for frames of the same size) and stem lengths (shorter) have been optimized for women's morphology.
Handlebar width axis-axis:
XS, S: 380 mm
M, L: 400 mm
Stem length
XS: 60 mm
S, M and L: 80 mm
Transmission
Lever MICROSHIFT 8 speeds precise and very robust design.
The lever is specifically designed for small hands to ensure better ergonomics for women.
Front and rear derailleurs MICROSHIFT
Crankset/cassette

Gear ratios: 11-13-15-18-21-24-28-34
Double chainring 48/34. (Wheeltop FC RC 500 conf.1)
Cranks:
XS, S: 165 mm
M, L: 170 mm
On the RC120 men's model, the cranks on sizes XS and S are 170 mm. On this women's model, the 165 mm cranks have been selected for the XS and S sizes to cater specifically for women's morphology.
Brakes
PROMAX DSK-300R disc brakes.
160mm disc front and rear
Anti-compression lining JAGWIRE to guarantee precision and braking efficiency
Semi-metallic pads SAV reference: 8562868
A running-in period is necessary. Simply make a series of 20 progressive brake applications at low speed (20 km/h), then a second series at 30 km/h. Both brakes need to be run-in.
This ensures better adhesion between pad and disc.
