Ride Quality
Cervélo's approach to ride quality focusses on the rider's experience. We define ride quality as the feeling of the bike being appropriate for its intended use.

Aerodynamics
Aerodynamics is at the very core of what we do at Cervélo. The company was founded with the goal of making cyclists faster, and using aerodynamics is the best way to achieve that goal.

Weight
A carbon bike frame layup is made by placing hundreds of individually cut plies of carbon in a mold in a certain order and orientation. The more precisely these plies are cut, the lighter the frame, as less material is used to achieve the desired strength and reliability.

Stiffness
The stiffness of your bike has a big impact on your ride experience. Cervélo has spent years researching and testing these different types of stiffness to create the best possible riding experience for you.

Usability
Cervélo values standard components and intuitive adjustments, all of which make our bikes simple to own and easy to enjoy.
