The Cervelo Aspero 5 Force XPLR AXS 1x Gravel Bike brings high speeds to rough terrain with its lightweight carbon construction and optimized geometry for aerodynamic riding. Cervelo is well known for its fast road bikes so adding a splash of what they know best into this gravel-grinder brings speed to our off-road exploration and delivers superior handling stability and a comfortable ride. The integrated cable routing also helps to improve aerodynamics as well as give us a clean-looking drivetrain. This edition of the Aspero 5 features the SRAM Force XPLR AXS 12-speed drivetrain designed specifically for gravel riders who know exactly what gearing is necessary to conquer any and all terrain along the way. The 10-44T cassette pairs with a 40T chainring providing enough variety for steep climbs fast descents and easily shifting with a simple tap. This wireless setup also features AXS connectivity to provide riding insights such as those included in the integrated Quarq Zero power meter that accurately measures to +/- 1. 5%.
