Cervelo Road Bikes are a relatively new maker of high end Road Cycles with a reputation for innovation and high performance. The Cervelo Cycle Company was founded in 1995 by Phil White and Gerard Vroomen and is situated in Toronto, Canada. Phil White and Gerard Vroomen had been involved with the design and development of Road Bikes and human powered vehicles since 1986 and had gained prominence in the field with the commision to design develop and test faster more aerodynamic Time Trial road frames for a prominent Italian Road Cycle maker. It was this that convinced the two men to start their own Bike making company in the mid 1990s. Cervelo first came to prominence in 2002 when they produced Road cycle frames for the Danish National Cycle Team and continued to produce and provide frames for the Danish team CSC until the end of the 2008 Pro Cycle Season. From 2008 on Cervelo have been created and run the Cervelo Test Pro Cycle Team. To promote Cervelo’s top end road cycles in many of the national tours including the Giro De Italia and Tour de France. The Cervelo Test Team has attracted some top names from the sport of professional cycling including 2008 Tour De France GC winner Carlos Sastre and Tour De France 2009 winner of the Green Jersey Thor Hushovd. Cervelo Bikes have a reputation for cutting edge technology and innovative design with striking style. Cervelo make use of CAD and computational fluid dynamics in the design and manufacturing of their Top end Road Cycles. Cervelo cycle frames are made from Hi Modulus Carbon composites and Aluminium. All Top end Cervelo Road Frames are tested using wind tunnel technology and computer simulation during design with and emphasis on frame stiffness and aerodynamic efficiency. Wind tunnel testing is carried out from the San Diego Air and Space Tech Centre, California, USA. Cervelo frames have a distinctive style with compact frame geometry and airfoil shaped down tubes to further enhance aerodynamics. Innovation coupled with Cervelo's strong sponsorship of Pro cycle teams such as CSC has led to a high profile in the Top end Road Bicycle makers. Cervelo have quickly established themselves as one of the highest rated Road Cycle makers and in industry polls are currently the top manufacture of Time Trial Road Bikes. The Cervelo Brands success is built upon quality and striking good looks with the Cervelo Teat Team models of the 2009 Tour De France being voted the best looking bike of that year. Cervelo continue to improve on their innovative Frame designs and are gaining a greater market share of the top end Road Bicycle market. If you choose to buy a Cervelo Road bike you can be assured you will be buying a top quality and highly reguarded marque.

Cervelo T3 Time Track Bike Offering the perfect ballance between weight and stiffness the Cervelo T3 was a major winner in the Beijin Olympics picking up 5 Gold & silver medals. Created from a rigorous design and development perspective this is one of the best Track Bike Frames currently available onthe market. High and Ultra-high modulus carbon stiffen the sides of the main tubes to resist lateral bending. strips are feathered in to transfer loads from the joints into tubes for maximum power transfer.

Cervelo S1 Carbon Road Bike 2009 According to a number of leading Pro cycle magazines the cervelo S1 is the most underated Road Bike in world. Offering outstanding value for money this is a must have among serious cyclists. Made from High Modulus Carbon Fibre and designed with exeptional aero performance with an oversized downtube and bottom bracket for increased stiffness. The Cervelo S1 still delivers a very comfortable ride.

Cervelo S2 Carbon Road Bike Has built a solid reputation amongst the Pro cycling fraternity. Made from High Modulus carbon Fibre with aero tubing designed for power transfer and comfort it is the choice of a number of Pro riders. Lower aerodynamic resistance: TrueAero® tube shapes are designed for the lowest drag at bicycle speeds. 300 pieces of carbon positioned and spec’d to deliver stiffness, strength, light-weight and comfort resulting in a 25% lighter frame than the S1. By using unidirectional high-modulus carbon on the sides of the aerotubes, lateral stiffness is further optimized.

Cervelo R3 SL Carbon Road Bike An extremely light bike and even lighter than the Cervelo R3 the R3SL is made from Ultra High Modulus Carbon with oversised downtube and aero seat stays. A square construction takes lots of material far away from the center plane of the frame giving more lateral stiffness. The ovalization makes the shape resistant to denting. The result frame is A light, very stiff and very strong Frame.

Road Bicycles (racing cycles) are typically designed to be ridden on tarmac roads at high speed for this reason they are made from light weight materials such as carbon, titanium and aluminum to reduce the effort required for a rider to cycle up hills or mountains. Most Road bikes have multiple gears with a cassette of sprockets at the back wheel and often with a two or three ring sprocket at the drive chain. multi gear bikes are far more flexible depending on the incline of the road being ridden. Road cycles are generally fitted with thin wheels and tyres to reduce drag from the road and allow faster riding. Drop down handle bars are preferred for aerodynamic advantages when descending or sprinting. Road Bicyles differ greatly in price with the top end models such as those used by professional cyclist in pro cycle events such as the Tour de France and Giro d' Italia running into thousands. Reasonable and entry level Road bikes can be found at much more affordable prices in many Bike stores and online.
