As the gravel racing scene continues to grow up and speed up, Cervélo has looked to its range of road bikes for inspiration and aerodynamic advances when developing the all new Áspero-5. If the bike's silhouette looks familiar, it's because it borrows heavily from the road going S5.
With the new bike, Cervélo aimed to produce "fastest aero gravel bike", with their own test data producing claims that it is 37 watts faster than the outgoing bike, and 32 watts faster than the closest competitor, the Ridley Kanzo.
