S5 Force AXS sets the standard for aerodynamic road speed and race-winning efficiency
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The S5 Force AXS is the benchmark for aero road bikes. I’m blown away by how the iconic V-stem and deepened front end deliver both stability and pure speed, while the SRAM Force AXS group and integrated power meter make it a race-ready package. The Reserve wheels and 28mm tires keep things fast and stable—even in crosswinds. This is the bike I’d pick when only a podium finish will do."
We ride the Cervélo S5 Force AXS when only the fastest bike will do. From the moment we see the iconic V-stem and deepened Bayonet fork, we know we’re on a machine built for the front of the peloton. Cervélo’s relentless pursuit of aerodynamic advantage is evident in every tube shape and integrated detail, from the asymmetric seat tube to the perfectly matched Reserve wheels.
With the latest S5, Cervélo refines its formula for speed. The new front end is deeper, lighter, and more aerodynamic, saving over 6 watts versus the previous generation. The one-piece carbon cockpit is not just faster—it’s more comfortable and adjustable, letting us dial in our fit for long days or explosive sprints. The SRAM Force AXS group delivers precise, wireless shifting, and the integrated power meter ensures we can train and race with data-driven confidence.
Whether we’re chasing KOMs, sprinting for the line, or riding into a headwind, the S5 Force AXS rewards every watt. The Reserve 57/64 wheels, developed specifically for this frame, slice through turbulent air and remain stable even in gusty conditions. We trust this bike to deliver podium-worthy performance every time we clip in.
Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.
