- S5: Right bike. Right fit. Right ride.

Mark was coming off a Factor Ostro VAM. He enjoyed the aero gains his old rig delivered, but wanted more versatility and in particular climbing capability.

Enter the Cervélo S5 — a bike built to cheat the wind, now dialled for all-round performance.

⚙️ SRAM RED E1 - Brings the lightest, most advanced shifting available. Setting up x1 further improved aero gains and saved some g’s, whilst the 10-46 covers all the bases when things start pitching up.
🔥 Scope Artech 6 - Deliver the watt savings whilst adding genuine climbing capability.
🖤 Finished in Five Black - An aesthetic so sharp and stealthy the B-2 would approve.

@ 7.2Kg (incl PM) for a bike this aero - it doesn’t just look fast, it is fast, everywhere.
