2027 Cervélo Aspero Rival AXS 1 Unisex Gravel Bike - Dusty Unicorn

The new Áspero remains true to its original brief, but with some improvements: a threaded BB shell, neater cable routing, and a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger for those who want to use SRAM’s Transmission drivetrains. And it’s more aero, of course. In the case of Áspero, aerodynamic performance is less about pure speed as a result of drag reduction, and more about conservation of energy. After a big day in a headwind, the three watts saved over the previous Áspero might add up to one less energy gel your stomach has to digest—WORTH IT.

In addition to the drag reduction, Cervélo also dropped the seat stays to give a bit more compliance out back, and reduced front-end stiffness slightly to make the last hours of a long race less painful. Between those dropped seat stays, they added in a bit more clearance for mud. It’s a lot of seemingly small improvements, but they add up to a lot. The result is a bike that feels a lot like the original Áspero, but is faster, more comfortable, and more versatile.

THREADED BOTTOM BRACKET
Áspero uses the asymmetrical T47a threaded bottom bracket they pioneered on R5-CX. It’s a simple, rider-serviceable interface that allows us to deliver the benefits of BBRight in a more user-friendly form. 

UNIVERSAL DERAILLEUR HANGER
Cervélo have used SRAM’s Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) standard on Áspero. It’s ideal if you want to live your best ‘business in the front, party in the back’ life with one of SRAM’s Transmission drivetrains today, and ensures compatibility for future drivetrain developments.
