Wilier Unveils Rapida: Italian Racing Style at a Friendlier Price
Wilier launches the Rapida as a more affordable entry to its road-bike lineup, keeping signature Italian aesthetics and racing geometry but with a slightly relaxed fit. The bike is offered in two builds: Shimano 105 Di2 with Miche Asfalto wheels for €3,999 (~$4,320) and Shimano 105 mechanical with Miche Reflex Dx wheels for €2,899. Key features include aero tube shaping, a one-piece aero cockpit, 36mm tire clearance, and ongoing 1x compatibility with 86.5mm BBs and future-proofing; Wilier frames aim to deliver the brand’s speed and design at a lower price point for broader accessibility.
