About this model
Borrowing geometry cues from the race-winning carbon Leggero, the Italia RC is designed for riders who want to compete, train and go fast on their bikes. Constructed from state-of-the-art 7000 series aluminium, our triple-butted frameset is stiff and superbly light. Remodelled with a tapered head tube and new smoother, lighter tubing, the Italia RC is ready to take you to the podium.

Tapered head tube
The 1-1/8" to 1.5" tapered head tube is paired with our straight blade full carbon fork for pin sharp handling, and stiffness under braking and cornering, keeping you confident on the tightest of race courses.
![Asymmetric down tube](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0858/4882/t/103/assets/1e337ae6a3d9--CONDOR-2020-ItaliaRC-WhiteMidnight-Detail-L1020939-8da12a.jpg?v=1717580133)
Asymmetric down tube
The Italia RC features a new race tested down tube with a flattened profile. The shape ensures it remains resistant to lateral forces as well as being vertically compliant. The result: the Italia RC is quick to accelerate and tough to throw off the racing line.
![Tuned superlight aluminium](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0858/4882/t/103/assets/1e337ae6a3d9--CONDOR-2020-ItaliaRC-WhiteMidnight-Detail-L1020945-6fc23d.jpg?v=1717580142)
Tuned superlight aluminium
Race tuned, double-butted aluminium has been tested by our pro team and designed with performance as its goal. Each tube is custom shaped to provide the best balance of lightness and stiffness, as well as compliance to absorb road imperfections. Spending hours in the breakaway move is easy: it's down to your legs now.
![Enhanced frame treatment](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0858/4882/t/103/assets/1e337ae6a3d9--d198a4f18b4d-Condor-Italy-Factory-112-copy-aa3670-9c2fd8.jpg?v=1709135398)
Enhanced frame treatment
Once the frame has been welded and cleaned, it receives a light anodising treatment before being painted. This provides additionalsome protection against corrosion, which combined with regular maintenance will help to keep your frame in good condition. Read more
![Threaded BSA bottom bracket](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0858/4882/t/103/assets/1e337ae6a3d9--italia-rc-bottom-bracket-fc7ffd.jpg?v=1717580292)
Threaded BSA bottom bracket
Condor frames feature a BSA threaded bottom bracket shell. It's an overlooked part of the frame, but a very important one. The lowly bottom bracket doesn’t get much attention, and if it's working properly, that's the way it should be — smooth and silent. BSA is a tried and tested, reliable system, preferred by the two of the most popular component makers, Shimano and Campagnolo. To make life easier, bottom brackets to fit this standard are available from just about anywhere. Fitting a BSA bottom bracket is simple, and the tool required is inexpensive.
