Cervelo Aspero Apex XPLR AXS 1

Cervélo designed the Áspero to prioritize energy conservation through aerodynamic efficiency. This model features refined tube shapes that decrease drag, allowing riders to maintain higher speeds with less physical exertion over long distances. The transition to a T47a threaded bottom bracket provides a reliable, serviceable interface that simplifies maintenance. Additionally, the inclusion of a Universal Derailleur Hanger ensures the frame remains compatible with the latest drivetrain technology.

To improve the ride quality on difficult terrain, Cervélo lowered the seat stays and tuned the front-end stiffness. These adjustments create a more compliant frame that helps manage vibration and reduces fatigue during competitive efforts. This specific build utilizes a 12-speed SRAM Apex XPLR AXS wireless drivetrain, offering precise shifting and a wide gear range. With a carbon fork and versatile frame geometry, this bike remains a fast and stable choice for any gravel race.
