Cervelo P5 Frameset 2026
The Cervélo P5 Frameset is built for one purpose: getting you from Point A to Point B as fast as possible. It is as comfortable on the Big Island as it is in a Grand Tour time trial. Because of this versatility, the P5 has become a key part of elite racing. In fact, it played an important role in Team Jumbo-Visma’s Giro d’Italia and Tour de France victories in 2023.
A faster, more adaptable platform
On the new bike, Cervelo focused on creating a fast platform that could be made faster with the latest wheels and cutting-edge fit adaptations. There’s room for a 34mm tyre on wide wheels, which improve aerodynamics and reduce rolling resistance. The basebar is lower to reduce CdA but possible stack has increased, and the extensions can now be adjusted between 0 and 30 degrees in five-millimeter increments. For triathletes, Cervelo included a variety of storage options, because half the battle is taking in sufficient calories to deliver a strong marathon. Also new on this bike? A size 61 to help all of our tall friends achieve a better fit.
Key Features
- Simplicity and adjustability: The new one-piece front end (first pioneered on the S5) is simpler to assemble and adjust, and stack is now adjustable up to 40mm, while the basebar height drops by 10mm to minimize frontal area. The new riser increases tilt adjustability, 0 to 30 degrees, in 5-degree increments.
- Speed: The new P5 frame is about a watt faster aerodynamically than the previous model, and has clearance for 34mm tyres. That clearance means plenty of room for Reserve’s new 77/88 wheelset, and Vittoria’s 29mm tyre, which saves about 4 watts over the previous Reserve/Vittoria pair for a total system savings of about 5 watts.
- Comfort & Control: The new armrests and pads on the P5 are wider, taller, and thicker than before. It’s definitely more comfortable, but it’s also more confidence-inspiring. More surface area here leads to better control, which means more time in the most aerodynamic position possible.
- Compliance: The new fastback seat stay design reduces vertical stiffness by about 22% (while maintaining the lateral stiffness needed for power transfer). The TT position is unforgiving (to say the least), but the new P5 will help you roll into T2 a lot fresher.
- Modular storage: incorporates custom Cervélo parts and approved aftermarket accessories to allow full customization of your storage needs. It enables a secure and aerodynamic solution tailored specifically to your needs and your Cervélo bike.
