Not as sexy as I thought it would be... Still it looks like it works.

$ 4,800.00 frameset,I'll take two one for me and one for the mrs. : )[/img]

Agreed about it not being sexy. Nothing too special looking. I'm not a fan of the completely vertical seatpost.... ruins the sleek lines, seems to contradict the sweeping flow of everything else.

I wonder what happened to the front brake in the fork...

With everything else being either black or white, I wonder why they chose to use a silver brake?

I bet it did not test better than where the brake is now so why go with that design.

Yep, it's ugly.........

HOT ... FREAKIN' ... DAYAMN!

And only $4,800 for the frameset. ;-)

The "science" on any matter can never be settled until every possible variable is taken into account.

It's actually pretty damn cheap

I am sure that it is tested and proven to be better and faster but I do like the looks of P3 and P2 better. Maybe it will be like some cars and it just takes a while to grow on you.

Yawn...

Seriously that is what all the hooplah has been about? Sorry, i'm sure that it works, I'm sure that it is even more aero than the P3C, I'm sure that there is pleanty more innovationin it than it appears in that picture, but still, yawn...

Best color scheme out of the boys at Cervelo since the SLC-SL though.

That thing is pretty badass. What do you think the screwed plates are where the old shifter cable stops on the downtube were?

Remember when it was nothing more than this...

I am going to have to say that it is the best looking cervelo I've seen. The black is nice.

If it turns out to be fast, it'll grow on a lot of people. And it's already got a 2nd place at the World Championships.

Good question. My guess: Internal routing for an SRM or other power meter. I know there was chatter about internal routing for these cables. Not sure why they would not go through the top of the top tube with the other cables, but, who knows. That is just a guess.

what is the square slot on the down tube?[/img]

i wonder how much for a replacement water-bottle ??

speaking of which - a high dollar bike that relies significantly on a . . . . water bottle . . . . . . . . .

suppose you drop one, or a dog runs off with your feedzone replacement, etc etc. ?? c'mon.

"30s over 40k improvement over the P3C" from Gary at interbike.

If Cervelo is following the layout they have been doing with the S3, then there is probably some kind of pulley or round, slotted place to redirect the bare cables from their vertical entry point down the tube to the BB shell. My understanding was that they were not going to put internal routing guides in like other manufacturers have done.

Chris

That's for the cable routing (behind the stem) like on the S3.

Kendall

I think it makes the P3 an even better value.

Maybe to get that you have to upgrade to the P5? ;-)
