"So, to kill some time until Saturday, let me start the 50th post in the this Forum about the unused screws above the Bottom Bracket on thousands of Cervelo P2, P3 and P5. Looking around in the worlds transit zones, I really don't understand why somebody hasn't jumped on this yet. I understand the measurements are unique for every size, however with 3D printers being more widely available it shouldn't be the biggest obstacle anymore, and people who spend 3-10.000 USD on bicycles usually have some money left for smart storage solutions. Here is what I have gathered so far:
1) TorHans apparently has the 3D printer files ready for years, however waiting for (the money from?) Cervelo. If Cervelo didn't confirm for many years, they will certainly not do it anytime soon when they want to sell the P5X with the main selling point of integrated storage/nutrition solutions. So these files sit on a server somewhere and will never see daylight, while lots of people wait for exactly this product. A little bit of a shame. Having contacted them, they said it is intellectual property and they are not giving it out. I totally understand that, but it is a shame
2) Drag2Zero said they will be looking into producing something for the P Series similar to what Sebastian Kienle will be using on Saturday in Kona on his Scott Plasma 5. However, no news on that front, and they didn't answer my question for updates yet. Having a look at my P5 with the Elite Crono bottle the shape doesn't look too different to what the Scott Plasma unit currently has, I wonder if anyone has tried to make it fit with a few alterations?
3) You can find a few "do it yourself" options in this forum, some converted from other units, and some built completely from scratch. Some interesting approaches for people who love to work on their bikes, but nothing that would satisfy the masses of bike owners out there
4) Did I miss anything?
Pleased to hear your thoughts! "
