Cervelo P2 105 11 Speed Triathlon Bike 2015

New for 2015, the Cervelo P2 gains a gear and is smoother than ever with the inclusion of Shimano's 105 5800 11-speed groupset. The Cervelo P2 105 11 Speed Triathlon Bike 2015 is the latest in a long line of race winning machines. Seven years ago saw the first P2 hit the road and take the triathlon and Ironman scene by storm. Taking Chrissie Wellington to two World Ironman titles and becoming the triathlon bike of choice for professionals and amateurs a like. This bike combines affordability with performance, offering a carbon frame, FSA Gossamer Pro brakes, Profile Design Aero brake levers, Shimano Dura-Ace shifters, Profile Design handlebars and stem and finished off with a Fizik Arione TRI2 saddle and Shimano RS010 clincher wheels.

Pretty much using the same frame as it’s P3 bigger brother, the only differences are the fork and colour scheme. The other major difference that keep this bike at such a competitive and attractive price point are the components used. High-end Dura Ace TT shifters have been paired with, just as competent, Shimano 105 5800, Profile Design and FSA parts.

Cervelo know how to cater for all disciplines and distances with there two holed seatpost pairing perfectly with a specific Cervelo XLab Rear Carrier such as the Delta 300. The two top tube bottle bosses mean you can also attach an XLab Stealth Pocket 300 for all your nutritional needs.

Cervelo realise this is a great entry-level triathlon bike and with such a high quality, race ready frame, you may at a later date want to upgrade parts or the groupset. They have addressed this by making the P2 frame mechanical, hydraulic and electronic compatible.

With racing this bikes forte it has been designed carefully to comply with UCI Federation guidelines, making it the perfect bike for timetrials as well as triathlon and Ironman events.

An amazing range of sizes are available, a very nice touch when a lot of manufacturers offer such limited aero frame sizes. For the smaller rider a 650c wheel has been added to the 45cm frame, perfect for eliminating that awful toe overlap experienced on many small frames.

Finishing kit is provided by Profile with an adjustable aero bar setup, comfortable pads, designed for the most ergonomic, aerodynamic ride possible.

Shimano RS010 wheels have been added to the 700c wheel versions, whilst the 650c, 45 centimetre sized bike gets Vision Team 30 wheels. Either way these wheelsets are lightweight, solid and spin smoothly. These wheels are paired with Vittoria Rubino Pro tyres that offer excellent levels of grip and puncture resistance.

A very comfortable, high quality, triathlon specific Fizik saddle adds the finishing touch to what is a highly competent, fast and affordable, race ready triathlon bike.

Available in a wide range of sizes and a stunning white and blue colour scheme with striking Cervelo graphics.
