They stopped production of the RCA before the new R5 was launched last year. It probably got taken down from the site recently because they’ve sold the last of their directly held stock.
When the new R5 was launched they said they wouldn’t be doing a California version as the facility was too busy with other projects. Maybe they’ll change their minds, but I’d be surprised.

so, the last good looking cervelo-model is gone. a pity.
Even though it's finished, you can get one as a warranty replacement. The one I was looking at was built up but had a delamination thing. The seller got a new one within two months and hasn't been assembled.jinchou2000 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 1:49 amI just checked Cervelo web site and surprisingly I found they removed the RCA from their R series ...

I just got the email confirmation from Cervelo customer support that Cervelo has announced the end of RCA frame by 5/31/2018.
It looks like my 2016 4.04kg RCA won't get replaced any time soon.

It will be replaced with the best available rim-brake version available. Assuming there are no RCA's available for warranty, you'd get an R5 Rim.tabl10s wrote: ↑Sun Jul 15, 2018 6:11 amDid you ask what happens in a warranty situation?jinchou2000 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 6:01 pmI just got the email confirmation from Cervelo customer support that Cervelo has announced the end of RCA frame by 5/31/2018.

It actually appears that you'd get a complete bike as a replacement, here's the official wording on the communication:dre_lo82 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 8:39 pmIt will be replaced with the best available rim-brake version available.

We are no longer accepting new orders for the RCA framesets. As this is a end of life model, in cases where no warranty stock remains we will do our best to replace warranty-claim RCA framesets with the highest-end complete builds of our new rim brake-equipped R5.

I wonder if you can upgrade to the disc version?
