Cervelo Aspero Apex 1 (2022)

Cervelo Aspero Apex 1 - Welcome to the era of speed in gravel

A new breed of rider is emerging—one who loves the freedom and exploration that gravel culture was founded upon but who has a hunger to ride wild, to go full bore, and to explore not just geography but personal limits. This frontier requires a new kind of gravel machine, one engineered not to roam the trails, but to slay them. Cervélo brought to life the Áspero. A machine capable of hitting the best times on and off the asphalts streets. A machine engineered for pure speed, ready to take down finish lines, KOM leaderboards, but also just for you because it is your feeling on the bike that matter: PR’s.

The Cervélo Áspero Apex 1 is the entry model in the gravel bike family of the canadian manafucturer. With this version, you have the same high-end carbon frame as the top model, the differences are mainly in the drivetrain and the wheelset. To be more accessible to everyone, the Áspero Apex 1 is equipped with a Sram Apex 1x11, reliable, strong in the mud, you can go full gas through any forest without problems. And what a style with the black Alexrims aluminium wheels combined with the pure single ring crankset. Entry model has nothing to do with sacrifying the style.
