Cervélo S5 road frame Five Black

Description

Cervélo S5 is a road frameset designed for building an aerodynamically focused race bike. It sits in the premium performance category and targets riders who prioritize efficiency on flat terrain and at high speeds. This is a 700c frameset in size 54 in black.

Frame and geometry

The frame is made from the Cervélo All-Carbon composite and is intended for road use with an emphasis on aerodynamics. The set includes the Cervélo All-Carbon Bayonet S5 Fork, which structurally continues the frame’s front end design. The headset uses the FSA IS2 1-1/8 x 1-3/8 standard, matching an integrated solution for precise front-end steering. The frame uses Cervelo Aero Thru-Axles, and the rear end is set up for 12x142.

Components

Drivetrain: The frameset is intended for a custom build based on the chosen road groupset. The bottom bracket is selected according to the specific crankset and the type of cups used in the build.

Brakes: The frameset is designed for a modern road build with disc brakes. Rotor diameter is chosen according to the fork and brake calipers used in the complete build.

Wheels and tires: The frame is designed for 700c road wheels. Cervelo Aero Thru-Axles use 12x100 up front and 12x142 at the rear.

Cockpit: The set includes Cervélo HB14 Carbon handlebars and the Cervélo SP20 Carbon seatpost. The cockpit is designed around clean cable routing as part of the build and stem selection.

Ride characteristics

The aerodynamically shaped Cervélo S5 frame makes the most sense at higher speeds, where aerodynamic drag becomes increasingly important. The carbon construction supports efficient power transfer during accelerations and steady efforts. The 12 mm thru-axles stabilize tracking under power and through fast corners. The Bayonet S5 Fork increases front-end precision under braking and during direction changes.

Who it’s for

The Cervélo S5 frameset is intended for experienced road riders building a race bike with an emphasis on aerodynamics and clean integration. It’s well suited to criteriums, fast group rides, and time-intensive flatland training. Compared to more all-round road frames, it targets riders who prefer speed and stiffness over comfort.
