| Features |
|
The design concentrates on a good combination of strength and comfort while keeping the weight respectibly low |
|
Incredible power transmission and decent low weight |
|
Unique seatstays offer even more vertical compliance thanks to their built-in deflection shape |
|
Industry leading stiffness and comfort |
|
Squoval Cervlo smartwall carbon tube profiles |
|
Exceptional torsional and bottom bracket stiffness |
|
Same handling philosophy as other Cervelo road bikes, but with a longer headtube for those who prefer a higher handlebar position |
|
You will notice three geometric changes on the RS: |
|
First is the longer headtube, to match the higher handlebar position |
|
Second is the chainstay length: once the handlebars move higher and the riders torso rotates backwards, his/her center of gravity moves backwards as well |
|
Lengthen the chainstays, keep the weight distribution between front and rear wheels for optimal handling characteristics |
|
Lastly is that the smallest size is made for 650 c wheels to prevent toe overlap |
