Cervelo Road Bikes | R2 Shimano 105 (2018)

Sharing much of the R3’s leading-edge technology and engineering, the all-new R2 combines value and performance to thrilling effect. Boasting a Shimano 105 platform, category-leading stiffness, and our versatile elite fit and stable handling, this is the obvious choice for any road cyclist raring to ride like the pros.

As a pro-calibre climbing weapon, the R2’s fine-tuned stiffness makes the most of every pedal stroke. And with clearance for 28mm tires, you won’t flinch on less-than-perfect pavement while exploring uncharted roads.

If you’ve ever felt nervous about hammering out of the saddle, get ready to leave that feeling behind. On the R2, pro-level performance and confidence go hand in hand thanks to stable, responsive handling and a versatile elite fit that lets you push, and break, your limits.

Ride Quality
The established Cervélo fit has been enhanced with a new geometry highlighted by a lower standover height and extra toe clearance. Then there’s the R2’s new handling geometry and 28mm tire clearance, which improve stability and performance-boosting comfort.

Usability
Road riders at all levels are now embracing the versatility of wider, lower-pressure tires in order to reduce fatigue and, in turn, boost power output. And since wheel manufacturers’ wind-tunnel testing has shown that wider tires can actually deliver aero benefits, tire clearance for the new R2 has been increased to 28mm without sacrificing performance.

Stiffness
The R2’s stiffness-to-weight ratio has been meticulously tuned to maximize the efficiency of every pedal stroke and boost confidence in cornering and overall handling. If you’re looking to feel more connected to the road, look no further.
