This latest iteration of the S5 has already triumphed at the Tour de France, with both overall winner Jonas Vingegaard and greenjersey winner Wout van Aert riding it at times. It is, according to Cerv\u00e9lo, \u201csimpler, faster and easier to live with\u201d than the previous version. <\/p>\n\n

01<\/span> Aero gains <\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

The new bike shaves off around 8.45 watts at 48kmh\/30mph, largely thanks to the new 52\/63 wheelset (see below), which saves around five watts over its predecessor, the 50\/65. New UCI technical regs have also allowed a \u201cdeeper head-tube and bottom-bracket area and more aggressive shaping on the trailing edges of the tubes\u201d and the area above the front wheel on the S5 has a more pointed, extended leading edge to create a bigger aerofoil. <\/p>\n\n

02 <\/span>Ease of use <\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

Because there\u2019s no traditional steerer tube, stack height can be adjusted up and down by 30mm with the use of spacers, without needing to cut anything down to size. Cerv\u00e9lo has also ditched stack-specific bolt sizes, meaning it should also be easier to swap in a different stem. Cables on the handlebar are routed externally, through a small channel on the underside of the bar, hidden by the handlebar tape. In total, these changes are also claimed to save 53g of weight.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

03<\/span> More clearance <\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

Frame and fork clearance has been increased to fit tyres up to 34mm wide (measured width). The front derailleur mount is also removable to allow you to fit a cleaner and more aero 1x drivetrain set-up if you wish. <\/p>\n\n

04<\/span> New wheelset <\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

The Reserve 52\/63 combines two differing rim profiles, optimised for their location on the bike. Up front, there\u2019s a shallower, wider rim for improved stability in windy conditions, while out back there\u2019s a deeper, slightly narrower rim for improved aerodynamic performance. <\/p>\n\n

05<\/span> Straighter seatpost<\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

The new S5 will ship with a 15mm offset seatpost, rather than the 25mm offset version of the previous model, which brings the rider position forward and opens your hip angle for more aggressive pedalling. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
