Cervelo S5 Reviewed



Are you in the market for a new Aerodynamic Road Bike?  Check out a Review on the Cervelo S5:

By the numbers, the Cervélo S5 was the most aerodynamic aero road bike that we tested in the wind tunnel this summer. Chalk it up to smart design based, in part, on rider feedback. On the road, the S5 just felt fast. Everything about it screams straight-line speed, from the tube shapes to the BBright bottom bracket. The only bike that felt faster was the Time Skylon, which we also tested this year, but the lab data shows that the Cervélo was actually faster.

NEW 2016 Specialized S-Works Venge ViAS Di2

The new Specialized Venge ViAS is quantifiably
faster than a standard road bike by a wide margin

The all-new S-Works Venge ViAS Di2 was developed with one objective in mind—to be the fastest bike in the world.


The 2016 Specialized Venge features dramatic aero features such as a truncated head tube, an integrated low-riding stem, an elongated front brake mounted behind the fork and a rear brake tucked midway up the seat tube. Cables and wires are internally routed — even through the stem — and the tubeless-ready wheels are a bold depth of 64mm.

But perhaps the most dramatic thing about the new Venge ViAS is that it handles like a great road bike.

The new frame is matched with a brand new Roval CLX 64 wheelset, the fastest the brand has ever produced.



“We are fully friggin’ commited,”said Specialized’s Mark Cote to a Bikeradar journalist, who helped bring the wind tunnel to life. “Aero is typically 80 percent of the resistance you face on a bike. It’s not just road products where we are studying aerodynamics. It’s e-bikes. It’s mountain bikes. It’s apparel.”


  • The FACT 11r carbon frame features fully internal cable routing, and it's Rider-First Engineered™ in order to provide consistent performance across the entire size range.
  • FACT carbon fork is designed to drastically reduce aerodynamic drag, while still providing incredible stiffness and steering response for all out efforts and twisting descents.
  • Roval CLX 64 wheelset provides the ultimate in speed and performance. Optimized for both head- and crosswinds, the CLX 64 wheelset is tubeless-ready and features a 21mm internal rim width for enhanced traction, minimal rolling resistance, and improved aerodynamics.
  • The S-Works crankset features our highest quality carbon construction for the best in lightweight power transfer, while also featuring a fully integrated ANT+ compatible Quarq power meter.
  • Fully integrated proprietary brakes are strategically located where wheel flex is minimal. This reduces brake rub, as well as laying claim to a near-zero drag coefficient for maximum aerodynamic efficiency.
