Cervelo C5 Frameset

The C5 is an endurance bike with a difference—custom geometry, room for wider tires, and a vibration-damping frame are combined with Cervelo's expertise in engineering high-performance bikes. The result is a bike primed for riders who want to ride farther, faster.

Cervelo creates endurance bikes that are comfortable and versatile but don't sacrifice performance—because riding a sluggish bike is no fun. The C5 frame and fork are lightweight, with a fine-tuned stiffness to weight ratio for precise and predictable handling. No wet noodles here. The C5's design and construction prioritize stability and comfort, with a geometry specially designed for long days in the saddle. The frame is tuned to smooth the ride, and features room for wider tires (up to 32mm) to optimize comfort and traction. Additional user-friendly features include a disc-brake setup that's compatible with all commonly used calipers and rotor sizes, thru axles for improved alignment and safety, and a down tube guard and chainstay protector to help prevent damage when the road gets rough.
