Cervélo has updated its S5 aero road bike by shaving weight, adding stiffness and adding SRAM eTap and Shimano Ultegra Di2 options. It says that the 2017 model saves 21.3w over the existing version. 

What’s more, the Canadian brand has also created a disc brake version of the S5’s more affordable cousin the S3, which will also ship with Enve wheels for 2017. We visited the European launch in Andalusia, Spain to find out more.

The S5 was born from Cervélo’s long time obsession with aero road, starting with the original Soloist — which gave the S series its initial. The S5 is one of its most successful bikes in competition, notching up 28 World Tour victories alone.

For 2017, Cervélo will be adding new eTap and Ultegra Di2 complete bikes to its range, which will come equipped with long-time technical partner Rotor’s 3D+ power meter cranks.
