Frameset: Fast and Fit. The P5 is the most aerodynamic,
best-fitting, and best match of stiffness and comfort. The P5 frameset
is Cervélo's most aerodynamic ever, with skin surfaces tuned for each
AeroZoneo to optimize airflow conditions at each point along the frame.
The result is a time saving of ~30-seconds in a 40-kilometer time
trial. The P5 also features a BBright bottom bracket for ultimate power
transfer and ComfortPly technology which removes unnecessary material
to reduce vibration and improve ride quality.
Aerobar:
The world's fastest and best-fitting aerobar. The integrated Aduro
aerobar has been designed by Cervélo and manufactured by 3T. It features
100% hidden cables that eliminate aero drag and engineered cable paths
that minimize bends and maximize shifting performance. With its
innovative design, the Aduro can be positioned lower than most existing
bars and allows for over 11cm of easy upward adjustment.
Brakes:
Aero by Cervélo, hydraulics by Magura. The P5 brake system is
aerodynamically superior to and lighter than any standard caliper or
disc brake. The zero-maintenance hydraulic system also provides
outstanding modulation and superior stopping power. It includes
integrated aero brake levers and an aerodynamic caliper design. And the
calipers adjust to fit all wheels, including the newest wide rims. The
P5 is the only tri bike in the world featuring a hydraulic brake as OEM
equipment in 2012.
To see the brakes in action - Magura Brakes.
Storage & Hydration: Designed for
speed and versatility, a full range of sleek and intuitive storage
solutions are custom designed for the P5. From an integral bottle cage
mount between the aerobar pads, to a Shimano Di2 battery located inside
the frame's HiddenPocket™, to multiple locations for nutrition, the P5
mates optimal aero locations with ease of access.
