I don't really understand this post. Do you mean design is only of superficial significance?
It will be interesting to see the white paper, if any, on this iteration. The disc version would have more dramatic changes due to the need to accommodate the braking torque at the hub, and due to the lack of need for brake mounts at the rim.
New Cervelo R-series frame?

The rumblings I've heard is that there won't be a new RCA version of this one. So if the new R5 weighed as much as a current standard R5 it would leave Cervelo without a true ultralight frame, and I don't think that would be acceptable for them. So my educated guess would be sub-700g for the frame, and probably remaining at £3.5k for the frameset.
Integrated seat clamp.. and Fork looks a lot like tarmac's.
Different paint job will make the New R5 better.
