As the good folks at Cervélo say, “Haul ass, not cargo”.
The Cervélo Aspero is a gravel race bike. Period. It isn’t a beefed-up adventure bike made to add racks and carry you, fully loaded, on an epic tour. It is a road-race-inspired bike that is designed to finish gravel events in the shortest time possible.
All Aspero models feature the same steep headtube angle (for a gravel bike), long top tubes paired with short stems for great slow-speed front-end handling, and the versatile Trail Mixer Fork. Check out our video for a complete rundown of the Cervélo Aspero models!
All Aspero models feature the following:
- Road Race-Inspired Geometry
- Top Tube Bag Mounts
- Three Bottle Mounts
- Tire Clearance for up to 700×42 or 650×49 Sizes
- Trail Mixer Fork For Correct Front-End Trail Depending on Tire Size
Aspero Models
There are two Aspero models – “Regular” Aspero and Aspero 5. The difference between the models comes in the aerodynamic shaping of the tubes, the hidden cables in the front of the bike, and a lighter weight carbon fiber material and layup process. The result is that the Aspero 5 is lighter and more aerodynamic which, in turn, makes it faster.
Aspero and Aspero 5 are available in a number of different build kits from both Shimano and SRAM with both mechanical and electronic groups to choose from.
