The Cervelo R5 Disc Dura Ace Di2 9170 Road Bike 2018 is a top of the line option for the rider looking for a direct, responsive and premium setup. With a highly engineered carbon fibre frameset offering the rider a slick and smooth ride with a strong and rigid integrity, you can be sure that no power is wasted in your pursuit for the line. Rolling on ENVE 3.4 wheels and benefitting from disc brakes and a full Dura Ace Di2 9170 groupset, your ride is fully tweaked and tuned for that best ever experience.

Built around Cervelo's intricately and meticulously designed R5 frameset, this latest model has been tweaked to provide major improvements on the previous iterations. With a rider first geometry at the core of Cervelo's composition, they've focused on improving the rigidity without compromising the lightness of this bike. The results are evident too, and Cervelo themselves claim a 13% stiffer bottom bracket and a 21% more solid headtube, allowing you a greater degree of control and efficiency over the power you can put through your machine.

The R5 makes no compromises as a race machine first and foremost. World Tour riders praise its new pro fit, stable and responsive handling, and unrivalled stiffness and lightweight design. Bernie Eisel calls it “the perfect bike for stage racing,” and Omar Fraile demonstrated as much by winning Stage 11 of the 100th Giro d’Italia. Available with either disc or rim brakes, the R5 sets new benchmarks for performance, usability and confidence-boosting control.

After years of research and testing on the road, in the lab and in the wind tunnel, we’ve redefined the classic road bike by revolutionizing three interconnected factors — comfort, fit, and handling/stability — while continuing to push the aero envelope with new Squoval Max tube shapes.

Finally, equipped with disc brakes, this lightweight, aerodynamic and impressively specced bike is ready to provide a top of the line braking force that gives you the confidence to carry your speed for longer, taking your pace into the corners and scrubbing it off later into your ride, leading to an overall, faster performance by bike.
