At the time, I got the last 61cm they had in the Cervelo Warehouse that supplies Arizona bike shops but they had other sizes readily available.

Last thing I heard was that the Ultegra builds were available for order and the other builds/framesets were 6 weeks out.

Tires widen under pressure by time. After 6 weeks with 7bar (100psi) the 23mm Conti Grandprix measures 27,5mm on the 25mm HED+ rim. So with 28mm tires it's better to watch, just in case ..

Anyone running a crank based PM on their S5?
If so, what? (On the Rotor cranks)

A power2max unit replaces the spider on the stock Rotor cranks, a direct replacement. Have a few friends riding that setup. Others have Shimano SRMs or GXP Quarqs with the appropriate adaptor.

Dura Ace 9000 SRM for me.
I bet the Rotor SRM would also work.
Not sure about other brands.

Ive already got a GXP Quarq that I swap between my current roadie and P3C, but getting a little tired of that (yeah I know, first world problems!)

P2M looks like it might be the goods if its a straight swap.
Thanks all.

Could you post up some pics of your 61cm S5? Just want to see how it looks - I ride a 61cm and have damaged my frame, so looking to replace and the S5, S3 and latest R3 are on the shortlist. Some frames just look a bit funky in the large sizes (older Cervelo S-series in particular…). Also seen a Felt FRD AR in a 58cm and that looked normal, so think the AR will look okay in a 60cm.

What a day with Luzié. First time short/short, the Qhubeka team outfit suits great. 200km rolling in the sun and at the apple blossom road I met the Altig brothers. Willi got 80 this year, his younger Brother, Rudi Altig, is 78 years old now. Willi told me they didn't ride together since years. As teenager in his training group I learned how to ride as fast as faster ones. What a day to meet him on the road and to talk with him, again.

Just posting a 61 (with stem spacers...) Wheels are my ~2010 Stingers, converted to 11 speed (which turned out to be pretty easy) with new stickers.

Thank you so much!

That looks good for such a large size - much better than the older S bikes I've seen in large sizes. It's on my shortlist!

Thanks again, and nice ride.

That looks gorgeous!

Some guy on a Dutch forum here said the new s5 handles better as the previous s5 was too stiff in his opinion..

I own the previous one in sz 58 and love the thing for short hills and fast rides.

I plan on running a Pioneer power meter on the S5 but not sure where to mount the Pioneer computer with the Cervelo aero handlebar. Anyone find a way to mount it on the stem which according to Cervelo is the better aero position. No one seems to make a stem mount for the computer like the Garmin mounts.
