Description
Aspero 5 Frameset (2023)
The Cervélo Aspero-5 is made for lightweight speed. Aerodynamics is not typically a priority with gravel bikes, but a headwind across an open field can lead have a devastating impact on speed. Gravel riders typically do not have a peloton to protect them from the wind, so being efficient in all conditions is essential. It also has an integrated handlebar and stem combo and a vibration dampening seatpost to keep you comfortable moving fast. The bar is also flared for extra control on the toughest terrain. The Cervélo Aspero-5 is world class when it comes to going fast on tough terrain.
