Cervelo R5 Red eTap AXS 12-Speed Disc Road Bike 2020
A superlight bike that's perfect for dominating the hills, the Cervelo R5 Disc Road Bike is now finished off with the latest full SRAM RED eTap AXS 12-speed groupset. Benefit from the wider and smoother progression of the X-Range gearing with more 1-tooth cassette sprocket jumps and closer chainring configuration to ensure that you are never far from the sweet spot. The striking look of the redesigned Flattop chain is quieter and stronger, despite being thinner, resulting in crisp and accurate shifting that won't skip a beat.
With an 18% improvement in head tube stiffness and a 26% improvement in bottom bracket stiffness over previous editions of the R5, you can be sure of unrivalled power transfer that will launch you up the climbs. Even on the flat the Pro-Ft geometry, refined from working with professional riders, offers an exceptionally low stack height for an optimum aerodynamic position. Should you need to change a wheel or fix a puncture, the RAT quick-release thru-axle requires just a 1/4 turn so you will be back on the road in no time.
Features
- SQUOVAL MAX tubes combine the attributes of a square for strength with an oval for a more aerodynamic leading edge
- BBright system uses oversized frame tubes in key areas for improved stiffness and power transfer
- RAT thru-axles for fast wheel changes
- Plenty of tyre clearance for tyres up to 28mm width
- Integrated computer mount for uncluttered handlebar
- The disc model of the R5 is Cervelo's stiffest ever road bike frame
