There were some posts on the Cervelo board saying the UCI approval is actually old and that the "R7" is really the R5. :noidea:

Yeah. I guess we will know soon enough. Probably by TdF time.

I know a lot of the guys at Cervelo. Before the P5 and Rca launch many of them were testing the new frames (either themselves or at the HQ). I haven't seen any of them riding new bikes and theres been no mention of anything new at HQ. Unless PON has changed how they went about launching things, I don't think something new is coming down the tunnel - at least not yet.

From the Cervelo forum:

Hey Guys, glad to hear that you are very excited about what we are working on. To set the record straight, the "R7" is just a name we were kicking around for the current version of the R5. We thought we'd include it in the list, just in case. If you check the UCI closely, you'll notice that this line item has an application date from 2012. This article is not accurate and based solely on speculation.
David Byer, Cervélo
