The R5 will fuel your passion, whether you find glory in winning races or beating your friends to the top of the hill. The R5 makes no compromises as a race machine first and foremost: like you, it thrives on punishment. Cervelo made the R5 stiffer at key points in the bike while maintaining its featherweight status. The R5’s careful balancing of stiffness and weight results in a bike that accelerates quickly but is stable and predictable at speed.

Ideal for stage races and hill climbs, the R5 Rim is a high-performance bike you can trust. Stiffness and geometry work together for pedalling efficiency and stable handling, while wider tires and frame compliance create a smoother ride which reduces rider fatigue. Disc brakes ensure controlled braking in all conditions. It’s clear Cervelo values user-friendly and intuitive adjustments. The thoughtful details of the R5 will delight you: RAT thru axles for fast wheel changes, plenty of tire clearance (for tires up to 28mm wide), and an integrated computer mount for uncluttered handlebars.
