Cervelo S5 Team 2012 Custom BuildBack to Products
Description:Cervélo's all-new S5 takes the concept of an aero road bike to new levels. On the one hand it's a clear progression from the Soloist/S3 design but then there's the radical aerodynamic features that have merged into the design from the P3/P4 line. The S5 Team maintains the same stiffness and strength numbers as the S5 model, but is made 100grams lighter through further material refinements. This is the bike of choice for Team Garmin-Cervélo. The key new features of the design are: Dropped downtube: this smoothes out the airflow from the fork to the frame and minimises turbulence behind the crown.BBright: Cervélo's proven (on the R-series road frames) take on oversized bottom brackets and asymmetric chainstays makes for a lighter yet stiffer pedalling platform.Extended cutout: the radical rear wheel cut-out smoothes out the airflow between the frame and the rear wheel. If it's good enough for the P4...Shielded brake: the seat stay design has been created to shield the rear brake, one of the biggest causes of turbulence.Multiple bottle positions: yes, your bottle affects the airflow so the S5 frameset has multiple bottle mount positions to allow maximum flexibility - why didn't anyone else ever think of this?
Frame: Cervélo S5 Team
Note that the S5's head tube is 6mm longer than the equivalent R-series frames because the S5 fork is 6mm shorter! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
