Overview

About this bike

Speed meets sophistication: the S5 is engineered to ride and handle like a pure aero road race machine. It begins with a carbon layup that’s tuned to optimize stiffness laterally and torsionally while shaving every gram possible. Cervelo’s aero geniuses hit high gear with a dropped down tube and an extended seat tube cutout to smooth the transition of air from the front to rear wheel with nary a hiccup. The wind-cheating wizardry continues with brake-shielding seat stays and internal cable routing with top-tube entry. Cervelo’s mammoth BBright bottom bracket provides Herculean power transfer while their renowned geometry means it’s as comfortable as it is responsive and fast. The 22-speed Shimano Ultegra 8000 drivetrain provides "pro-proven" shifting technology as a direct trickle down from their Dura-Ace line and intuitive braking capabilities. This rocket is built with Mavic Cosmic Elite wheelset, Cervelo's own All-Carbon aero handlebars and seatpost, Ultra Light Alloy Stem, and Fizik's Antares saddle. Features: - BBright: This asymmetrical 79mm bottom bracket standard yields stiffer and lighter frames and crank systems - Built for bottles: Minimizes the aero penalty by partly integrating the water bottle into the down tube airfoil - Carbon dropouts: Tough, compression molded dropouts save weight with no sacrifice in strength compared to traditional metal dropouts - Future-proof cable management: Ensures your frame is compatible with all current and future derailleur and brake systems - Extended seat tube cutout: A close-fitting curve in the seat tube's trailing edge significantly improves aerodynamics by shielding the leading edge and top of the rear wheel - Shielding seat stays: Hide the rear brake calipers from the wind, not from the mechanic - Reduced-friction BB guide: Significantly reduces cable friction in the bottom bracket, which means smoother shifting, easier setup and longer service intervals
