FASTER IN EVERY DIRECTION

The new R5 frame is 130g lighter than the previous model—a 16% reduction from an already-light frame.  And while aerodynamics weren’t a focus with this frame the way they would be on an S5 or P5, bringing the cables inside reduced drag by 25g.

NO WASTED EFFORT

The stiffness of the S5 is a sprinter's dream. Using a combination of material, shape, and layup, we engineered the S5 to be stiffer at the head tube, for stable and predictable handling, and at the bottom bracket, so that more of your power goes into turning the rear wheel.
