Cervelo Time Trial Bikes
Improving with each evolution, years of R&D have made Cervelo bikes amongst the lightest and most efficient time trial and triathlon bikes on the market. You will feel the difference from your first pedal stroke. Simply put, they make you go faster.
Fast gets faster. The Cervelo P5 is made for helping you go as fast as possible between point A and point B. The P5 enables exceptional performance, with a history of elite road racing, the P5 is a bike focused on being as fast as possible.

Compliance
The new fastback seat stay design reduces vertical stiffness by about 22% (while maintaining the lateral stiffness needed for power transfer). The TT position is unforgiving (to say the least), but the new P5 will help you roll into T2 a lot fresher.
Simplicity & Adjustability
The new one-piece front end (first pioneered on the S5) is simpler to assemble and adjust, and stack is now adjustable up to 40mm, while the basebar height drops by 10mm to minimize frontal area. The new riser increases tilt adjustability, 0 to 30 degrees, in 5-degree increments.
Speed
The new P5 frame is about a watt faster aerodynamically than the previous model, and has clearance for 34mm tires. That clearance means plenty of room for Reserve’s new 77/88 wheelset, and Vittoria’s 29mm tire. which saves about 4 watts over the previous Reserve/Vittoria pair for a total system savings of about 5 watts.
Comfort & Compliance
The new armrests and pads on the P5 are wider, taller, and thicker than before. It’s definitely more comfortable, but it’s also more confidence-inspiring. More surface area here leads to better control, which means more time in the most aerodynamic position possible.
Take one look at the all-new P-Series, and you’ll notice a striking resemblance to Cervelo's flagship TT bike, the P5. P-Series benefits from all the racing, wind tunnel time, and testing required to make the P5 the fastest TT bike in the World Tour, but adds a couple features that make it a perfect companion for a triathlon of any distance.
The P-Series is for the athlete seeking speed, storage, value, and comfort. It’s Cervelo's no-nonsense machine engineered to get you from A to B as fast as possible. It’s a no-excuses machine and your perfect PR sidekick. It’s lighter and more aero than its predecessor, the P3, making it faster on all courses. Naturally, aerodynamics and weight are only part of the equation—the P-series comes with a 500mL aero bottle, 400mL of top tube storage, and an integrated rear hydration mount. Customize the cockpit and the storage to your needs and your race.
Less Drag, More Speed
Aerodynamics are critical to engineering a fast bike: aero drag accounts for as much as 90% of the overall resistance affecting a rider. The P-Series frame design and customized tube shapes improve its aerodynamics while enhancing its stiffness, weight, and usability - all in a UCI-legal package.
Modular Storage
Modular Storage incorporates custom Cervélo parts and approved aftermarket accessories to allow full customization of your storage needs. It enables a secure and aerodynamic solution tailored specifically to your needs.
