2026 Cervélo Soloist

The 2026 Cervélo Soloist. Designed for riders who can only justify one high-performance bike. Lighter than the S5. Significantly more aerodynamic than the R5. The Soloist easily accommodates mechanical and electronic shifting, hammers out the training miles in all-weather, and has the DNA to ATTACK off the front at that decisive moment. That’s the 2026 Cervélo Soloist.

New for 2026

New for 2026 EVERY Cervélo Soloist model comes equipped with:

Power Meter
- Spider-based (SRAM Force & Rival)

The ‘Goldilocks’ ‘Just Right’ Bike

If the Cervélo S5 and R5 had a baby…the Cervélo Soloist is the Love Child! It’s 250g lighter than the S5 and 126g faster than the R5. You get the idea. It’s the ‘just-right’ answer for the rider trying to find a smart, intentional compromise.

Wider is Better

The Soloist fits tyres up to 34mm (measured), and wheels wide enough to support them. Wider tyres offer a better balance of comfort, rolling resistance, and grip, leading to improved overall performance and a more enjoyable riding experience, especially on varied road surfaces.
