Description
Cervelo Soloist Rival eTap AXS Disc Road Bike 2023 Bringing together elements from Cervelo’s hugely successful R5 and S5 models, the Soloist Rival eTap AXS Disc Road Bike offers fantastic performance on any road. The frame’s geometry mirrors that of the highly successful R5 so it is plenty comfortable enough for long days and solo breakaways whilst still being fast and efficient enough at speed. Cervelo claims that the Soloist is 250 grams lighter than the S5 and faster than the R5. There are a number of practical touches that will be appreciated by home mechanics and privateer racers too; the bottom bracket is threaded for easier maintenance and replacement, there is space for 34mm tyres to increase the bike’s utility and Cervelo’s clever cable routing keeps everything out of the wind but doesn’t require a full bleed for a stem change or adjustment. SRAM’s Rival eTap AXS groupset is electronic and wireless, so shifts are effortless and accurate every time, no matter the pressure on the pedals. The 12-speed 10-36 tooth cassette is perfect for hilly routes and the smaller, X-Range chainrings ensure that jumps in the ratios are kept to a minimum. The AXS app can be used to view extra data on a compatible smartphone whilst Bluetooth head units can display battery and gear information. Reserve wheels have quickly proven themselves to be light, fast and reliable. This aerodynamic 40/44 wheelset has a slightly shallower front rim for better handling and both rims have a very wide internal width for excellent sidewall support. Tubeless compatibility and Zipp hubs ensure top-drawer performance in every situation. Highlights Cervelo Soloist All-Carbon frame with TrueAero tube profiles Cervelo All-Carbon Soloist fork SRAM Rival hydraulic disc brakes SRAM Rival eTap AXS 12-speed electronic drivetrain Fulcrum Racing 600DB alloy wheels
