New Cervelo CX bike ridden by Vos. Mix between Aspero 5, and R5. Has hidden cables but also regular seat stays. Round post. Likely higher BB than Aspero/5. No other info.

I'm in the market for a new CX frame next year and that looks really nice to me. Not sure yet how I think about integrated brake lines on a CX bike but I guess it's a thing on CX bikes too. Stevens does the same with their new Super Prestige.
Edit: What bike was Wout riding last cx season? It looked similar but without integrated cables.

Looks pretty much as expected. Looks like a D shaped seatpost that' could be different than the R5/Caledonia 5. Not sure. Pretty overkill seat-post clamping. Hopefully the geo is good. Definitely looks like the top tube is pretty horizontal. Which I get why, but in smaller sizes makes stand over too tall. Needs a bit of slope. I think the Boone gets it right. Then if it’s taller not much seatpost showing. Like the Ridley CX, Eli’s bike doesn’t have much seat-post. I’m on 54cm bikes and on the in between end of 54 vs 52. And 52s are generally too small for stack.
Best new CX bikes:
-this
-Boone (no new thread for the new release)
-Cube (underrated and nice)
-Stevens (new SP with hidden cables)
Okay:
-Ridley (not a fan of geo)
Old:
-Canyon
Meh:
-Crux (meh, and too expensive)
-Santa Cruz (meh)

I think it was feature request from Wout van Aert, he used double clamping for many seasons on all of his CX bikes

He did a couple of rides on an earlier proto of this towards the end of the season.robbosmans wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 9:20 amWout was riding a Bianchi last year.Maddie wrote:What bike was Wout riding last cx season? It looked similar but without integrated cables.

Nope that was a repainted bianchi
And yet, he did a couple of rides on a proto version of this towards the end of the season.
Though since it already had hidden cables you're right, the one Maddie is referring to was the Zolder.
