The Alpitude Ultralight Battery Holder for Colnago Y1RS is a small but smart upgrade for riders trying to pull unnecessary weight out of a high-end build.
Designed specifically for the Colnago Y1RS, it replaces the OEM battery holder section with a lightweight carbon fibre part, helping clean up the build and reduce weight without changing the character of the bike.
Why upgrade the Colnago Y1RS battery holder?
The Y1RS is already a serious race bike, but like many high-end frames, there are still hidden areas where weight can be saved. This Alpitude holder targets one of those areas.
At just 10g ±4%, it is the kind of upgrade that makes sense for riders already investing in lightweight cages, carbon cockpits, premium wheels and other details that add up across the full build.
Real carbon fibre finish
The top plate is made from real carbon fibre and is available in two finishes:
- 3K twill carbon
- UD carbon
Choose 3K twill if you want the visible woven carbon look. Choose UD if you prefer a cleaner, more understated finish.
Made for Colnago Y1RS
This part is designed for the Colnago Y1RS battery compartment. It is not a universal battery holder and should only be used on the correct frame.

Who is this suited to?
This is for the Colnago Y1RS owner who cares about the details. It will appeal most to riders building a lighter bike, riders already using premium carbon components, and anyone who wants to remove unnecessary OEM weight from the frame.
It is not the first upgrade most riders should make. But on a bike like the Y1RS, small details matter, especially when the rest of the build is already at a high level.
