What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“I reach for the R5 Dura-Ace Di2 when I know the day is going to be all about elevation. The frame feels impossibly light under acceleration, but it stays rock solid on fast descents. Shimano’s Dura-Ace Di2 shifting is instant and predictable under load, and paired with the Reserve wheels, the bike feels perfectly balanced for long climbs and high-speed alpine riding.”We ride the R5 Dura-Ace Di2 for the days when the road points relentlessly uphill and the reward comes on the descent. Cervélo’s decades-long pursuit of climbing performance shows in every pedal stroke, with a chassis that accelerates effortlessly while remaining composed when speeds climb just as fast as the elevation drops. Built around a 651g carbon frame and paired with Shimano’s flagship Dura-Ace Di2 drivetrain, this R5 delivers refined precision and race-level efficiency. Reserve’s lightweight carbon wheels keep momentum high, while the one-piece carbon cockpit sharpens handling without adding unnecessary grams. For riders chasing summit finishes, long mountain routes, or pure climbing speed, this is the R5 at its most classic and composed. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.
