New Cervélo Tomorrow? (1st Oct launch)

[Cheers!]

That's not very light...

That's not very light...

none of them are really.... the discs.. the integration... deep clinchers.

so 7.5ish is semi-respectable, all things considered.

[Cheers!]

Deep clinchers can be made light.

They should be lighter too. I'd give it 1 or 2 more design spins for companies to made disc specific molds that don't need extra plys for the brake track on the rim anymore.

Combine that with tune hubs. Tune thru axles.

lighter wheelsets should negate the disc brakes.

I believe Cervelo has put a bb that looks like that as standard, so quite heavy.

Depends whether you will happen to have a creaky one If yes, it is highly unlikely you'll save anything there.

My R5D started creaking like hell (SRAM PF30). Will put Hambini BB in, which weighs 123g, but at least you can be confident, if creaking persists, it wouldn't be from the BB area.

I'd swap it out just to get a better BB anyway. It's nice that they've goe wih a thread together version, but just as with the headset they've gone with a super cheap one. They might as well drop the price by £30 and not ship it with any bearings at all

I don't know what is the exact BB model Cervelo uses in the S5, but i doubt they went for the lightest creak free option.
BBinfinite has one at 95g https://www.bbinfinite.com/products/bbr ... it-shimano

If i recall correctly, last year it was spec with a BBB one, but this year it seems they have have for something called Cervelo BBright Connect 24x90. Not sure if its supposed to be the same one.

I was talking about the PF BBright, which is used on SRAM (30mm axle) equipped Cervelos.

I haven’t pulled the crank off one to confirm but I suspect it is a BBB considering Pon owns both Cervélo and BBB.

So prices dropped a bit more, now I am seriously considering those S5(besides Nitrogen Pro frame which holds at £1.8k):

I´m gonna rebuild the frame on DA 9150 with Campagnolo Bora wheels and sell the rest. Which one of that Cervelos above seems to be a better deal?

I'd go with this and get a better handlebar in addition to the changes you're already making

[Zorka]

Agree, but Dura Ace version already have some carbon aero handlebar, I think.

But I have no idea for how much could I sell ENVE SES 3.4 Clincher wheelset...



EDIT: Could I install Vision Metron 5D integrated handlebar on S5 without problems? Not sure if the spacers will fit.

in the US.. maybe $1200-1400 max

Anyone here that owns the new S5 do you know if it’s easy enough to change bar height or do you need to shorten cables etc?
