The Cervelo P2 is one of the most iconic triathlon bikes of all time. The latest version of the P2 keeps with the Cervelo tradition of building aerodynamic AND practical triathlon frames. The fit is ideal for most athletes racing short or long course. For the dollar the P2 105 is on par with bikes twice its price and a great platform for any triathlete or time trialist.
The foundation of all bikes is the frame itself, and the P2 is a benchmark for most other triathlon bikes. The P2 is a full carbon fiber frame with full carbon fork. Cervelo provides riv-nuts on the top tube for a direct-mount bento box. Down tube water bottle mounts exist to address hydration needs. Cable management starts behind the stem, where both derailleur cables tuck away inside the frame, only to exit below the BB. The system is simple, clean, and works smooth. The rear wheel mounts onto horizontal dropouts. This allows you to adjust the rear wheel clearance based on tire size and personal clearance preference.
The full carbon proprietary Cervelo seat post mounts to the frame with a single seat post wedge. Use carbon paste and torque to about 8nm and you’ll experience no seatpost slippage. The saddle mount is infinitely adjustable in tilt, providing significant fore-aft adjustability.
The R2 reaps the benefits of Cervélo’s extensive knowledge in building stiff bikes. Careful attention is paid to stiffness at the bottom bracket and head tube to create a climbing and descending weapon. You’ll feel its rapid acceleration and confidence-boosting handling.
The sum of this effort is a light and stiff bike that revels on steep climbs and descents and offers aero advantages when you’re in the pace line.
The R2 is upgradable to any shifting system currently on the market. You can run tires up to 28mm wide, for a smoother ride. And the chain catcher will ensure you won’t drop your chain at an inopportune time – like when your friend launches a surprise attack up the hill.
The R3 is a climbing weapon. Using special carbon layup and construction techniques, we reduced the frame’s weight while making it stiffer at key points. The impressive stiffness to weight ratio means precise handling and instant feedback in speed.
Stiff and lightweight, with geometry that promotes stable handling, the R3 urges you to attack on the climb and push the pace on the descent. You’ll also enjoy a smooth ride, with tires up to 28mm wide and a compliant frame to absorb road vibrations.
The R3 features a robust chain stay protector; thru axles; future proof cable management system (compatible across all types of shifting systems); and a reduced friction bottom bracket guide.
The R5 makes no compromises as an ultralight race machine first and foremost. Team Dimension Data’s World Tour riders also praise its new pro fit, stable and responsive handling, and unrivalled stiffness. No wonder Bernie Eisel calls it “the perfect bike for stage racing,” with Omar Fraile demonstrating as much by powering it to glory in the 100th Giro d’Italia.
The stiffest rim brake-equipped road frame we have ever produced joins forces with performance-enhancing comfort, confidence-inspiring handling, and world-class lightweight design and aerodynamics made possible by innovative new Squoval Max tube shapes.
The ultimate all-round race machine deserves optimal component packages to maximize performance, and the R5 delivers. A revamped handling geometry balances stability and responsiveness for a ride experience that will make your confidence soar and your rivals curse.
With 21% more stiffness at the headtube and 13% more at the bottom bracket, the new R5 is our stiffest-ever road frame with rim brakes. But that’s far from the whole story: It also incorporates a stiffness-to-weight ratio that has been meticulously tuned to the attacking style of high-performance road cyclists.
Elite road riders no longer equate comfort with soft, slow bikes. Vertical compliance can reduce fatigue and, in turn, boost power output. Wheel manufacturers’ wind-tunnel testing has also shown that wider tires can deliver aero benefits. For these reasons, tire clearance for the new R Series has been widened to 28mm. Combine this with a Cervélo-engineered aero seatpost, and vertical compliance is further increased while improving aerodynamics. At the same time, a new pro fit and handling geometry will have you charging down chicanes and attacking cobbles with complete confidence.
THIS ASYMMETRICAL 79MM BOTTOM-BRACKET STANDARD YIELDS STIFFER AND LIGHTER FRAMES AND CRANK SYSTEMS.
A CLOSE-FITTING CURVE IN THE SEAT-TUBE’S TRAILING EDGE IMPROVES AERODYNAMICS BY PARTIALLY SHIELDING THE LEADING EDGE AND TOP OF THE REAR WHEEL.
ENSURES YOUR FRAME IS COMPATIBLE WITH ALL CURRENT AND FUTURE DERAILLEUR AND BRAKE SYSTEMS.
TOUGH, COMPRESSION-MOLDED DROPOUTS SAVE WEIGHT WITH NO SACRIFICE IN STRENGTH COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL METAL DROPOUTS.
