I would do +1 for the RCR Pro
I quickly rode a Decathlon AG2R bike and while it was too short to have a solid feedback, it felt very good, very reactive. For the rest I take the feedback from the rider itself who "prefer the bike a quite more than the BMC" ("pas mal plus" in french) he rode last year. Visibly a strong progress on the aero front (expected and merasured by Tour) and more reactive bike.
For 5500 GBP (and not sure if they do some voucher like in france where its around 150€ for the bike)
