Cervélo P5 Force AXS Red Hot

Engineered for Pure Speed. Refined for Real-World Racing.

FAST GETS FASTER. The Cervélo P5 Force AXS E1 is built with a single objective: to help you cover the distance between Point A and Point B as fast as possible. It is a pure contre la montre machine, equally at home on the lava fields of the Big Island as it is in decisive Tour de France time trials. The P5 has been a proven catalyst in some of the most demanding races on earth, contributing directly to Team Jumbo-Visma’s Giro d’Italia and Tour de France victories in 2023 by enabling dominant late-stage time trial performances.

With this new generation, Cervélo focused on creating an uncompromisingly fast platform that becomes even faster when paired with the latest wheel technology and modern fit adaptations. Tire clearance now accommodates up to 34mm on wide rims, reducing rolling resistance and improving aerodynamic stability. The basebar sits lower to minimize frontal area, while the increased stack range ensures riders can achieve a biomechanically efficient position. Extensions are now adjustable from 0 to 30 degrees in five-millimeter increments, enabling precision refinement for both triathletes and time-trial specialists.

For long-course racing, Cervélo integrates multiple on-bike storage solutions—recognizing that nutrition is as critical to performance as aerodynamics. And for the first time, the P5 range includes a size 61, ensuring taller athletes can achieve an optimal fit without compromise.

The P5 Force AXS E1 pairs this elite aerodynamic platform with SRAM’s 12-speed Force AXS E1 drivetrain, delivering smooth, wireless shifting, intuitive ergonomics, and reliable power transfer under the most demanding efforts. With the integrated SRAM power meter, fully synchronized shifting options, and a wide gearing range tailored for high-speed racing, the Force AXS build offers pro-level performance and modern electronic simplicity at a highly competitive value.

Whether your goal is an Ironman personal best or a race-defining time trial effort, the 2025 P5 Force AXS delivers a proven combination of speed, adjustability, and race-ready integration, engineered to help you perform at your absolute limit.
