Cervelo Aspero SRAM Rival AXS ‘dusty unicorn’

In 2019, the Aspero took the gravel world by storm and heralded a “new era of speed on gravel”. For full-throttle riding fun without compromise. The new Aspero remains true to the original concept, but offers a number of improvements: a bolted bottom bracket, cleaner cable routing and a UDH derailleur hanger, meaning SRAM’s Transmission drivetrain can also be fitted. And it’s even more aerodynamic. With the Aspero, aerodynamics is less about sheer speed and more about saving energy. After a tough day riding into a headwind, the three watts saved compared to the previous Aspero could mean one less energy gel your stomach has to digest – IT’S WORTH IT.

As well as reducing aerodynamic drag, we’ve lowered the seat stays and slightly reduced stiffness in the head tube area. This provides a little more comfort, making the final hours of a long race a bit less painful. Between the lowered seat stays, we’ve also created a bit more tyre clearance, drawing on insights from the R5-CX (and the mud battle at Unbound 2023). There are many seemingly small improvements which, when added together, make a big difference. The result is a bike that feels just like the original Áspero, but is even faster, more comfortable and more versatile.
