Cervelo R5 Disc (6.45kg)

[TourmaletteduFromage]

6.59kg now with new 28mm Conti GP5000s TR.

How wide are those Conti's on those rims? WR50 is 32mm right?

Can I ask where you got the Garmin Radar mount from, and does it work well with your Berk?

Lovely build .

Interested to know how you find the carbonworks copy bottle cages? Can you post a link if they're any good?

Cheers, Dave

Its 3d printed.
It works great.

My cages are Chinese, I got them from Ali Express for like $30 each. I haven't had any issues and I've had them for over a year now.

Its perfect.
I can save more weight by either reducing functionality or spending hundreds of dollars but I rather spend my money on other stuff.

I managed to get the seatpost clamp from the 2022 R5.
It fits perfectly and its a much cleaner design compared to the one that came on the bike.

Very nice and clean. Where did you get it?

Local Cervélo dealer. They had to make a special order from their rep.

Are you sure those are the CW copy cages? I have those ones in your link and they are a different design. Specifically, there is an upper and lower arm on these cages vs the CW cages which only have a lower arm. Also the CW cages have a wider mouth. I have the cages in your link (not the CW copies) and they aren't so great at holding Elite Fly bottles. Podiums are a better fit but still not super secure.

My lower arms broke off from heavy insulated podium bottles. Now I use non insulated Elite bottles and I never had a bottle fall out in 2 years.
They must have changed the design.

I just came across an example of a non weight weenie similarly spec'd bike.
It comes in at 7.09kg so over 500g heavier.

Any idea what those bottle cages are?

Looks like Supacaz Carbon Fly in Neon Yellow.
