  • One of only 50 Cervelo R5CAs came into the country and was built by Mike for a customer in Suffolk. After several months of discussion, the build list boiled down to:

    • Cervelo R5CA frame and fork,
    • Edge 1.25/DT Swiss 140s/DT Swiss Revolution
    • Continental Competition tubular tyres
    • THM Fibula brakes with Yellow Swisstop pads
    • Nokon cables
    • Shimano Dura Ace Di2 mechs and shifters
    • Syntace F99 stem with ti bolts
    • Schmolke bars and seatpost
    • Fizik Antares 00
    • THM Clavicula cranks with TA Hegoa chainrings, ceramic BB and Speedplay Zero pedals
    • YBN ti chain and KCNC sprockets

    Fully built in a size 56cm, it managed to creep in at just under 5kg. Incredible! See the Gallery for more pictures and photos.
