Cervelo R5 Ultegra Di2

Cervélo R5 Dura Ace Di2 - You can't get more performance than this!

The R5 is the ideal road bike for mountain stages and races that consist of several stages. Just as you love to push yourself in training or racing, the Cervélo R5 loves to be pushed to the limit. As usual, the workmanship and quality of the carbon frame from Cervélo is impressive. This is something that needs to be emulated by another company in the road bike sector. The stiffness and geometry of the R5 Performance road bike work perfectly together for a stable steering feel and high pedalling efficiency. Once the R5 gets going, it's hard to stop - unless you want to. This is where the Shimano Ultegra 2-piston brake with aero cooling fins and 160mm large discs comes into play. Every hairpin bend and every descent is a pleasure with the R5. Thanks to the new, semi-wireless Shimano Ultegra Di2, you won't miss out on a single tenth in terms of shifting performance and will master every ascent to the pass. The battery of the new Shimano groupset is located in the seat tube and is charged via the rear derailleur.

Cervélo - Carbon frame construction at the highest level

Cervélo's approach to ride quality focuses on the demands riders have during their races and tours. The manufacturer from Toronto, Canada defines ride quality in such a way that you feel the bike is perfectly designed for its specific purpose. For this reason, the bicycles are made of carbon in the finest detail work. A carbon layup is made by laying hundreds of individually sliced carbon fibres in a specific orientation in a mould and bonding them together with epoxy resin. The more precisely these layers are cut, the lighter the frame, because less material needs to be used to create the desired strength and reliability. The stiffness of your bike has a big impact on your riding experience, so the Canadian/American bike manufacturer has spent years researching and testing different frame stiffnesses. Cervélo values components that meet current market standards, so you can easily customise and not be locked into Cervélo components. All of Cervélo's engineering principles are designed to make their bikes easy to use and "easy to enjoy".
