Velo Bavarian are proud to offer this Cervelo R5 Ultegra Di2 Oxblood. All bikes on our website are physical stock so you can see them in the flesh and try for size. Other sizes are available to order.
The Cervelo R5 is arguably the best climbing bike in the world. Last of a dying breed, the lightweight frame is designed to do one thing, get to the top...fast. But anyone who has ridden an R5 will tell you this - the handling and descending prowess is second to none. Finished in the beautiful Oxblood colour way, this classic looking bike is one for a classy rider.

- Fully internally routed brake hoses reduce drag by 25 grams and give a clean aesthetic

- Lightweight, wind tunnel honed carbon Reserve wheels with DT Swiss 240 hubs are nimble uphill and fast in the valleys
- A Shimano Ultegra R8100 Di2 12-speed gear configuration changes flawlessly via its semi-wireless electronic format
- Shimano Ultegra R8100 hydraulic disc brakes stop with control and power in all conditions
- The carbon handlebar and stem are light, stiff and neatly channel the brake hoses

REVIEWS
"Jonas Vingegaard may mix his time between the R5 and S5, but the lighter-weight character of the former meant it has been his consistent weapon of choice in the mountains." cyclingnews.com
