Soloist
Algupära
Algne Soloist, mis lasti turule 2002. aastal, on laialdaselt tunnustatud aerodünaamilise maanteejalgratta kategooria leiutajana – see oli Cervelo esimene süsinikust maanteeratas, millel olid tõelised NACA-tuletatud aeroprofiiltorud ja mida Frank Schleck kasutas Alpe d'Huez'l võitmiseks. See eemaldati tootmisest umbes 2008. aastal S-seeria kasuks, kuid Soloist nimi taaselustati 2022. aastal kui Cervelo teadlikult kättesaadav universaalratas: see laenab S5-lt aerodünaamilise geomeetria ja torukujud, R5-lt kerguse omadused ning kaalub umbes 250 g rohkem kui R5 ja 250 g vähem kui S5. Tänapäeval on see suunatud 'nädalast nädalasse amatöörvõistlejale', kes soovib ühte ratast, mis suudab tõusta, sprindida ja läbida künkliku gran fondo ühe rattakomplektiga, millele mahuvad kuni 34 mm rehvid.
Tehnilised andmed
- Raam
- Full carbon fibre monocoque; claimed frame weight ~919 g painted (56 cm), fork ~374 g; T47 BBright threaded bottom bracket; semi-integrated cable routing; SP27 carbon aero seatpost
- Kahvel
- Cervélo Soloist full-carbon aero fork, rigid (road), ~374 g claimed
- Jõuülekanne
- 12-speed; builds from Shimano 105 (mechanical) and 105 Di2 up to Ultegra Di2 R8170, and SRAM Rival AXS up to Force eTap AXS (incl. Force AXS 1x). Ultegra Di2 build: 52/36T crank, 11-30T cassette
- Pidurid
- Hydraulic disc brakes, groupset-matched (Shimano 105 / Ultegra Di2 or SRAM Rival / Force AXS), flat-mount, 12 mm thru-axles
- Rattad
- Reserve carbon on upper builds (e.g. Reserve 40/44, 40 mm front / 44 mm rear depth, Zipp hubs); alloy wheels on entry 105 build
- Rehvid
- 700c; spec varies by build (e.g. Vittoria Rubino Pro TLR G2.0 28 mm or Vittoria Corsa NEXT 29 mm, tubeless-ready). Officially clears up to 34 mm measured
- Vedrustus
- Rigid (road race bike, no suspension)
- Rooliplokk
- Two-piece semi-integrated: Cervélo AB07 alloy handlebar + Cervélo ST36 alloy stem (mechanic-friendly, hides cables without a fully integrated one-piece bar)
- Sadul
- Selle Italia Novus Boost Evo SuperFlow (Manganese rail) on Ultegra build; Cervélo SP27 carbon aero seatpost (15 mm / 25 mm offset options)
- Geomeetria
- Race geometry shared with the R5: ~73° head and seat angles, 57.3 mm trail (consistent across sizes), 72 mm BB drop, 410 mm chainstays. Agile and direct, with decent high-speed stability. Sizes 48/51/54/56/58/61 cm
- Kaal
- ~7.5 kg (56 cm, Ultegra Di2 build); ~7.72 kg (56 cm, Force AXS build); ~8.47 kg on entry 105 build. Frame ~919 g. Positioned ~250 g lighter than S5, ~250 g heavier than R5
Verdikt
- Smartly balances aerodynamics and low weight — sits between the S5 (aero) and R5 (climbing) so one bike covers crits, climbs and gran fondos
- Sharp, direct race handling with R5-derived geometry — goes exactly where pointed, confident in fast corners
- Excellent stiffness and power transfer; responsive when sprinting despite the do-it-all brief
- Mechanic-friendly two-piece semi-integrated cockpit and threaded T47 bottom bracket — easier to service than fully integrated rivals
- Strong value: Reserve carbon wheels on upper builds and a price markedly below S5/R5 and many aero competitors
- Firm, sometimes punishing front end on rough surfaces; ride can feel fidgety on imperfect tarmac
- Heavier than dedicated climbing rivals and not as aero as dedicated aero bikes (Aeroad, Xelius) — jack of all trades, master of none
- No option for top-tier groupsets (no Dura-Ace / Red AXS build offered)
- Modest finishing kit and stock tyres on entry builds (alloy wheels, tyres described as 'claggy')
- Several testers reported creaking from the bottom bracket, headset or seatpost
