gummibear Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) I just had a look at the new Cervelo R5ca frame and fark it is light.I personaly would be to scared to ride it but they are selling well,only 6 in Europe at the moment and they all sold at 8499 €.It weighs in at only 685 grams for the frame and has string like rear stays. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs043.snc6/167393_191980580829257_115837675110215_627343_2825140_n.jpg Edited February 2, 2011 by gummibear
stewie911 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 you lucky basterd. I'll give my left nut for that frame.
Mavric Man Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 A mate got one of these babies in January, the closest I'll ever get to one, very nice...
gummibear Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 A mate got one of these babies in January, the closest I'll ever get to one, very nice...Is he in SA?
Mavric Man Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Yes, got it at the 94.7 expo, he rode it at the Fast One.
gummibear Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 Yes, got it at the 94.7 expo, he rode it at the Fast One. What kit is it built with?Any idea on the weight and what this frame sells for in SA?
Mavric Man Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Has top of the range SRam, a limited edition (yellow detail). I didnt get into the cost but I think its +-R80,000 for the frame but I am sure there are others here that could be more accurate! Full bike was +-6kg at a guess.
gummibear Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 With Zipp 202 tubbies and SRAM RED it will be very close to 6 kg's' You can go the very expensive German carbon parts route with Lightweight wheels and a R180000 later you can get it to 5.6kgs That's illegal to race with
Christie Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) 2 x R5ca = 1 x Dogma (well, almost, as far as weight goes) Edited February 3, 2011 by Christie
gummibear Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 I would rather buy a Scott Addict RC with DI2 and have some cash left .
Christie Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Agreed, price is crazy, more like 2xDogma=1 R5ca I would get a Caad10, Di2, Hollowgram SISL SRM, AX lightness wheels, bar, stem, post.
