CERVELO R5 Ultegra Di2

 AVAILABILITY MAY CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE, PLEASE EMAIL INFO@TRIATHLONLAB.COM TO INQUIRE ABOUT ACTUAL STOCK WHAT GOES UP MUST COME DOWN R5 has one job—get to the top, fast. But for all the glory and fanfare that comes with a summit finish, they’re rarely the only climb of the day. And while a race isn’t usually won on a descent, they can certainly be lost. A climbing bike that can't carve a hairpin is a bit like a cup of decaf coffee. This is the fourth iteration of the R5, and while weight and stiffness have varied over the years, the handling, poise, and unmatched prowess on a descent have been consistent since day one. FASTER IN EVERY DIRECTION The new R5 frame is 130g lighter than the previous model—a 16% reduction from an already-light frame.  And while aerodynamics weren’t a focus with this frame the way they would be on an S5 or P5, bringing the cables inside reduced drag by 25g. LESS STIFF, STILL FAST The R5 is stiff, but not too stiff—the Goldilocks of climbing bikes if you will. Poise, stability, and power transfer that feels “just right” and  keeps you fresh and ready to take on the road ahead.  BUILD SPECIFICATIONS (parts information subject to change) FORK Cervélo All-Carbon, Tapered R5 Fork HEADSET FSA IS2 1-1/4 x 1-1/2 THRU AXLES Cervelo Aero Thru-Axles, 12x100/142, Removable Handle WHEELS Reserve 34/37 TIRES Vittoria Corsa TLR G2.0 25c CRANKSET Shimano Ultegra 8100 52/36 BOTTOM BRACKET JY-BB 24 CHAIN Shimano CN-M8100, 12 spd FRONT DERAILLEUR Shimano Ultegra Di2 8150, 12 spd REAR DERAILLEUR Shimano Ultegra Di2 8150, 12 spd CASSETTE Shimano Ultegra CS-R8100, 12 spd, 11-30 SHIFTERS Shimano Ultegra Di2 8170, 12 spd HANDLEBAR Cervélo HB13 Carbon STEM Cervélo ST31 Carbon BRAKE CALIPERS Shimano Ultegra 8170 Hydraulic Disc SADDLE Prologo Scratch M5 PAS TiRox OR Selle Italia FLITE BOOST SuperFlow Ti SEATPOST Cervelo SP24 Seatpost BRAKE ROTOR Shimano RT-MT800, 160mm ACCESSORIES Cervelo Faceplate Front Computer/Accessory Mount, Cervelo Rear Accessory Mount
