Cervélo has been engineering performance-first road and gravel bikes in Canada since 1995, and the Áspero is their benchmark gravel racer. Built for riders who want to haul ass, not cargo — faster, more comfortable, and more versatile than ever.
HAUL ASS, NOT CARGO
In 2019, Áspero took the gravel world by storm, heralding a "new era of speed in gravel." The new Áspero remains true to its original brief, but with meaningful improvements: a threaded BB shell, neater cable routing, and a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger for SRAM Transmission compatibility. And it's more aero. In the case of Áspero, aerodynamic performance is less about pure speed and more about conservation of energy — after a big day in a headwind, the three watts saved might add up to one less energy gel. WORTH IT.
Cervélo dropped the seat stays for more compliance out back, reduced front-end stiffness slightly for long-race comfort, and added more mud clearance. The result is faster, more comfortable, and more versatile.
THREADED BOTTOM BRACKET
Áspero uses the asymmetrical T47a threaded bottom bracket Cervélo pioneered on R5-CX — simple, rider-serviceable, and delivers the benefits of BBRight in a more user-friendly form.
UNIVERSAL DERAILLEUR HANGER
SRAM's UDH standard ensures compatibility with SRAM Transmission drivetrains today and future drivetrain developments.
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Áspero shares the same bearing dimensions as R5, Soloist, R5-CX, and Caledonia — mix and match bearing caps and stems for a fully-internal look.
