Cervélo P5 AXS

It is designed for both. The P5 excels in long-distance events because its geometry prioritizes a sustainable, aerodynamic position, which helps reduce fatigue over the course of a full Ironman or long-distance time trial.

The cockpit is highly modular, allowing for significant changes in stack, reach, and armrest width. This flexibility is essential for dialing in a precise fit that balances your aerodynamic profile with your personal comfort and power output.

Yes, the wheelset is tubeless-ready. Running a tubeless setup is highly recommended for this bike to reduce rolling resistance and provide better puncture protection during training and racing.

The SRAM RED AXS groupset offers precise, wireless electronic shifting that is incredibly reliable under load. With 24 speeds and a 33-tooth largest rear cog, you have a wide enough gear range to handle steep climbs or technical sections without sacrificing your ability to push big gears on the flats.

While hydraulic disc brakes require more specific maintenance tools than mechanical rim brakes, they provide superior stopping power and modulation in all weather conditions. For a high-performance machine like the P5, the trade-off in maintenance is worth the added safety and confidence on technical descents.

Cervélo engineered the tube shapes specifically to maintain stability in varying wind conditions. While no deep-section aero bike is immune to crosswinds, the P5 is designed to be predictable and easy to control, allowing you to stay in the aero bars longer without feeling like you are fighting the bike.
