Cervelo R5 Lamborghini Disc Road Bike

Cervelo R5 Lamborghini Disc Road Bike

The Cervelo R5 Lamborghini Disc is a very special road bike conceived to celebrate the famous Italian supercar brand’s founding year. Limited to a global production run of just 63, this build combines Cervelo’s finest R5 road frameset with an exclusive paint scheme based on the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ car that broke the production car lap record of the infamous Nürburgring with a stunning time of 6:44.97.

The R5 frameset utilises Cervelo’s highest grade of carbon fibre within a sophisticated layup pattern to elicit an exceptional balance of lateral stiffness, vertical compliance, strength and low weight. These traits combine with the Squoval Max aerodynamically-tuned tube profiles to result in a reactive, smooth and fast ride that climbs, descends and thunders along valleys with equal aplomb.

Cervelo’s Pro Fit frameset geometry places the rider in a race-inspired position that guarantees agile handling, comfort and composure. The frameset has plenty of clearance to accept up to 30mm wide tyres, permitting extra grip and comfort, and the D-shaped carbon seatpost has a specific amount of flex to add additional compliance over poor road surfaces.

Campagnolo’s BORA WTO 45 disc wheelset has been developed in the wind tunnel to scythe through the air, but its 45mm mid-depth rim allows excellent crosswind stability as well. These wheels are also light and stiff to donate a nimble ride experience, are tubeless-ready and standard clincher tyre compatible, and finished with stealthy graphics.

Befitting for a bike of this quality, Campagnolo’s top of the range Super Record EPS groupset is charged with gear changing duties. This gear set up applies a liberal amount of carbon fibre throughout its construction and employs its electronic configuration to deliver crisp, accurate shifting. Hydraulic disc brakes, also Super Record, stop with power and precision in all conditions, while a Deda Superzero carbon handlebar cancels road vibrations and helps to further reduce aerodynamic drag.
