The Colnago Y1Rs SDM5 is the 2026 UAE Team Emirates pro team color, optimized for maximum aerodynamics and speed. It features a 19% reduction in frontal area compared to the V4Rs, with a “DEFY” seatpost joint and integrated cockpit for improved efficiency. The bike was developed to support Tadej Pogačar and UAE Team Emirates, specializing in high-speed, competitive racing.

Cutting-Edge Aerodynamics
The Y1Rs reduces its frontal area by 19% compared to the V4Rs, thanks to innovations like the CC.Y1 handlebars with WYND© technology and the curved downtube. These elements reduce drag and optimize airflow in all wind conditions.

Stiff Where It Matters
The frame structure is designed to provide 3.5% greater stiffness than the previous model. This ensures immediate power transfer during the most intense sprints and unparalleled responsiveness.

CC.Y1 Handlebars with WYND© Technology
The handlebars feature a “gull-wing” design that minimizes airflow separation and improves stability at high speeds. All this without compromising stiffness, making it ideal for the most powerful riders.

DEFY Seatpost Joint
The dual Y-shaped joint improves aerodynamics in the seatpost area and enhances vibration absorption, increasing comfort without sacrificing stiffness. Perfect for long breakaways and endurance stages.

Wind Tunnel-Verified Results
Tests conducted in real-world configurations show that the Y1Rs requires 20 fewer watts than the V4Rs to maintain a speed of 50 km/h. A significant advantage in fast races and windy conditions.

Modern Compatibility and Integrated Design
The Y1Rs is compatible with the most advanced electronic groupsets and offers a fully integrated design, from custom bottle cages to the aerodynamic seatpost. Every detail has been optimized to reduce weight and enhance aesthetics.
Every design decision was validated in a World Tour racing context. A project shouldn’t just look good on paper; it needs to perform exceptionally in real-world conditions.fe.
