Cervelo S2 upgrade worthy?
Moderator: robbosmans
Hi. I can get a reasonable price on a 2014 Cervelo S2.
It's a stock bike equipped with Shimano 105 and some cheap Shimano wheels.
I'll proberbly change everything except the stem - and keep the wheels for foul weather
The question is, if the S2 frameset is worthy of a massive upgrade? I can get the S2 cheaper than a S3 frameset and as far as i know the only difference is the S3 fork.
looking forward to all your input

S2 fork is cheaper to make but not any less aero. So there is no performance difference between S2 and S3 framesets
A frameset that is used on the worldtour is definitely upgrade worthy.
I usually put my clients on S2 with powermeter rather than S3, or upgrade other key components.
You really can't go too far wrong

Go for it! The S2 well-kitted makes a beautiful ride.

The difference is in the fork. I read that S2 has clearance issues with 25mm tires.

Absolutely. I just finished my virgin ride on my new 2014 S3. I built it up with mostly Red and as a 1X11. The bike is amazing. Not only is it fast at speed, it's fast getting to speed. It's lively and still comfortable. So far, better than anything I've ever ridden- hands down
