This generation of the S5 is \u003cstrong\u003eover 6 watts faster\u003c\/strong\u003e than its predecessor and \u003cstrong\u003e124 grams lighter\u003c\/strong\u003e, while keeping the handling and stability the platform is known for at the front of the professional peloton. Most of that gain comes from the front of the bike: a deeper fork and head tube paired with a redesigned \u003cstrong\u003eone-piece HB19 carbon cockpit\u003c\/strong\u003e that builds on the S5's original V-stem concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis build pairs the S5 frame with a \u003cstrong\u003eSRAM Red AXS E1 2x groupset that includes an integrated power meter\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eReserve 57|64 Turbulent Aero wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e that Cervélo and Reserve co-developed specifically for this frame. The wheels use DT Swiss 180 hubs, a 24-hole centerlock build, and are tubeless compatible front and rear — so the frame, cockpit, and wheels were engineered as one aero system rather than assembled from parts that happen to fit together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRacers and fast group-ride riders chasing every available watt of aero advantage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiders upgrading from an earlier S5 or a less aero-focused race frame who want a measurable gain in speed and weight\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCyclists who want \u003cstrong\u003epower data built into the drivetrain\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than added with a separate meter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiders who prioritize aero performance over all-day comfort — those logging long endurance miles or mixed-terrain rides are better served by a different platform\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to Look For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCockpit fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e the HB19 is a fixed one-piece carbon bar\/stem, so confirm your preferred stem length and bar width before ordering — adjustment is more limited than with a traditional two-piece setup\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWheel and tire setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e the Reserve 57|64 wheels are tubeless compatible with a 24H, centerlock build; decide whether you're running tubeless or tubed tires and centerlock-compatible rotors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGroupset tier:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Red AXS E1 is SRAM's top-tier wireless electronic groupset with a built-in power meter, so this build suits riders who want race-level shifting and power data without a separate purchase\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrame and cockpit:\u003c\/strong\u003e The deeper fork legs and head tube are the biggest structural change in this generation, designed to work as a unit with the new one-piece HB19 carbon handlebar\/stem.
