2013 Cervelo S5

[nismosr]

have you grown since earlier pictures, the seatpost seems to be extended quite a bit more now

still the same height, I have a problem with the seat post slipping on the s5,all the pictures from my ride where taken halfway of my daily route and always carry an allen wrench with me all the time to adjust the height of the post. just last sunday that actually applied a carbon paste to the seatpost and work really well. the post never move on a 37 mile ride.

I also notice saddle hight, before was lower and i just want to post that frame is too big.

[nismosr]

frame size is 54cm, I'm 5'10 you think I should have gone to a size 51cm? and all bike are either 54, 53 or medium. center of bb to the top of the saddle 28" on all of them. Slipping seat post on every ride. Thanks for noticing.

nismosr,

Nice build! What brake/shifter lines are you using?

I thought they looked like Aican Bungarus but looking closer at it, I might be wrong. Thanks

[nismosr]

Thank you they are Nokon housing.

perfect zipp decals !

[Quinn039]

that looks dialed now! i dont usually dig coloured housing, but it works well in this case.

Nice bike.
I have an S5 as well - love it.

I am thinking about getting a speed needle - however i am worried that the oval rails will not fit in the cervelo seat post. Any input on this?

[rmerka]

Get yourself an oval clamp. Cervelo is producing them now.

yes they do, but I opted for the Ritchey 1 bolt system clamp for $15 works really well.

[jepd1973]

Thanks will probably use the ritchey (might have one lying around)

I had this bike for 1.5yrs now and I must say it's no only for speed but this baby climbs like a mountain goat. Did a group ride yesterday 52miles and 6800ft. S5 has the 808/404 combo and I weigh that morning about 198lbs. slow but I'm impressed with the bike and with myself. hehehe
