12-Speed Road Bike NCR CF Rival AXS eTap - Blue

THE NCR CF RANGE

The Neo Racer Carbon Frame bike is our most all-round bike but still retains a strong focus on performance. It's part of the Race range, with a sporty character that's sure to appeal to performance-oriented cyclists.

Whether you're a beginner or an old hand, you'll love what this bike has to offer.

Every bike in the NCR range is equipped with hydraulic disc brakes to guarantee progressive braking in all weather conditions.

An all-round bike

This bike is the perfect partner for getting into competitions from a young age (size XXS) or for taking part in your first triathlons. It has a big clearance that lets you mount tyres measuring up to 35 mm so you can explore the trails near your home.

A closer look at the frame

100% carbon frame and fork. The carbon makes the bike lighter, more rigid and more energetic.

We've also used carbon in the fork to give you precise, direct steering.



The NCR CF bike's frame weighs 1200 g in size M when painted. The fork weighs 413 g.



Frame clearance: there's enough clearance to mount tyres up to 35 mm wide. With 38 mm tyres, there's a strong risk of damaging the paintwork.

Steering position

The NCR CF's steering elements are made entirely from aluminium, with a Van Rysel oversize stem and handlebar.



The stem size depends on the frame size: XXS: 60 mm

XS: 70 mm

S : 80 mm

M: 90mm L: 100mm

XL : 110 mm



Handlebar width (edge-edge):

XXS, XS, S: 400 mm

M, L, XL: 420 mm

SRAM RIVAL AXS ELECTRONIC DRIVE TRAIN

This version is equipped with the SRAM Rival AXS complete groupset. The baby brother of the Force groupset, from which it has inherited its technologies, this groupset really breaks the mould.

It's 100% wireless, and replacing the various parts is a doddle.



With the SRAM connect app, you can completely customise your set-up from your smartphone.



The groupset works with two batteries: one on each derailleur.

Weight: 3050 g



BB: DUB PressFit bottom bracket

Gearing

The bike is equipped with an SRAM Rival AXS 48/35 double chainring. The 48T ring gives you a higher cadence and lets you stay in the middle of the cassette for longer.



The Rival XG-1250 10/36T cassette has the following cog sizes.

Drive train maintenance

We want to draw your attention to the need for regular drive train maintenance, particularly if you're riding in difficult conditions (wet and/or dirty roads).

Regular maintenance helps your drive train to last longer.



You should regularly check your chain with our chain wear indicator,

which is available on our website.

Lifespan of a drive train

When buying a bike, it's important to take into account the cost of servicing it, especially as regards the drive train.

The amounts below are averages and are given so that you have a general idea of what to expect. They will of course vary depending on the care you take of your drive train.



The average lifespan of a well-maintained chain is 5000 km

The average lifespan of a cassette is 10000-12000 km

Disc brakes

SRAM Rival eTap AXS HRD disc brake with a 160 mm rotor at the front and 140 mm at the back (Paceline Rotor)

NB the reach of the brake levers can be adjusted to suit your hand size.

FULCRUM RACING 3DB WHEELS

The Fulcrum Racing 3 DB wheels give a particularly good ratio of weight to rigidity and performance. These 1660 g wheels (per pair) have an inner rim width of 19 mm and depth of 28 mm.

They have an asymmetric spoke pattern known as two-to-one: 21 spokes in total, but 14 on the left and 7 on the right.

The cup and cone make the bearings run smoothly.



This wheel is incredibly versatile and absolutely reliable.

Hutchinson Perf black tyre

Size: 700 x 28 C

Two years of R&D by the Hutchinson product teams has given birth to a new ElevenSTORM® rubber that meets the five main performance criteria for a high-end tyre: Grip, rolling performance, robustness, puncture resistance, comfort.

This version offers the perfect balance for all cyclists who want to go faster and further. When combined with a Kevlar® strip under the tread, it lets you ride with peace of mind and is rated to last for over 4000 km. Tubeless ready.

Tubeless or inner tube

We recommend switching your tyres to tubeless using the tubeless valve that comes with this bike.



Tubeless is more comfortable and more efficient, and the tyres can self-repair when you get small punctures.



Of course, you should always carry an inner tube in your repair kit, just in case your tyre gets a slightly bigger puncture.

Which size?

Please refer to the bike frame geometry table.

If you're between sizes, a shorter bike is better if you want something more lively. However, if you want to be comfortable when riding long distances, the bigger size is your best bet.
