2012 Cervelo S5The new 2012 S5

The story of aero integration

Introducing the S5.
 
The S5 is the most advanced aerodynamic road bicycle ever developed by Cervélo. Inspired by the demands of the world’s top pro riders, the S5 deploys everything Cervélo has learned in 16 years of aerodynamic design, and combines it with advanced material engineering honed in our Project California facility. Using the latest TrueAeroTM shapes combined with our most advanced lay-up knowledge, the S5 doubles the aerodynamic advantage the S3 had over traditional road bicycles. By adding BBrightTM and SmartwallTM engineering, we maximize energy response, and raise the torsional rigidity a whopping 12% over its highly acclaimed predecessor. The result is a quantifiably faster bicycle, which is also agile and responsive, yet smooth and comfortable on the toughest road surfaces.

 


 

2012 Cervelo S22012 S2

The comfortable aero tubing frame

The S2 pioneered carbon aero road bicycles. Our experience in building aerodynamic frames without losing focus on weight, stiffness, strength AND comfort, has been proven with multiple wins on the cobblestones. Introduced in 2009, the S2 remains a vital part of the S-series and still offers a true aero value today.

2012 Cervelo R5ca2012 R5ca

All of our knowledge in one frame All of our knowledge in one frame.

The R5ca is the crown jewel in the R-series, the industry gold standard in light weight, stiffness and strength. The engineers at Cervelo’s Project California have been pushing frame design with advanced lay-ups, and new technologies, the R5ca is what happens when you put all of that knowledge in a frame.

This frame is for the discerning rider who wants the absolute lightest, stiffest and strongest bicycle all in one package

 


 

2012 Cervelo R52012 R5
 
The ultimate lightweight frame
 
The R5 VWD is one of the lightest frames in the world. Lighter than the R3 Team, its impressive test scores are achieved because Cervélo maintains stiffness and strength standards for even its lightest frames. The R5 achieves this by using the technologies developed at the Project California, and mates then with highly complex lay-ups to further save weight and add stiffness.

 


 

2012 Cervelo R32012 R3
 
3-Time winner and 6 podiums in 6 years at Paris-Roubaix

When Johan Vansummeren won the 2011 Paris-Roubaix, he followed in the footsteps of Fabian Cancellara and Stuart O’Grady who won on the same grueling cobblestones using the R3. In fact the R3 has been on the podium of the world’s toughest race every year since it was first launched in 2006.

To this day, the R3 is engineered to optimize strength, stiffness and comfort while offering low weight in every situation. Built on the lessons learned at Project California, the Smartwall™ optimized second generation Squoval™ tubes place material where it is needed most, and remove it where it is not. We include the Cervélo optimized 1 3/8" steer tube taper for confidence when descending and cornering, BBrightTM to increase bottom bracket stiffness to new levels, and maintain comfort by using thinner than ever lightweight seat stays.

 


 

2012 Cervelo RS2012 RS

YOUR BEST ENTRY IN TO PRO BIKE PERFORMANCE
 
Andreas Klier of the Cervélo Test Team said the RS is the “very, very, very, very, very, very best bike" he’s ever ridden in Paris-Roubaix, the world’s toughest bike race for equipment. With the same SquovalTM shapes and SmartwallTM engineering as R3 and R5, the RS maintains stiffness and strength, but adds a curved version of the Ultra-thin seatstays to boost comfort.

The Cervélo RS will keep you comfortable on your longest weekend rides, and carry you to the podium of your local race. It even carried Thor Hushovd to the podium of one of his many weekend races: Paris-Roubaix.
The RS is part of the R-series, designed to make the difference on the hills and mountains.
