Despite
the fact that Cervelo supply only one cycling team and a handful of triathletes,
the P3C victory list is staggering. Its two world championships and nineteen
Ironman victories alone are a record that no other bike can match. In
time trials it’s no different; the P3C is by far the most used TT
bike in the world. The bike works and offers exactly what the rider is
looking for. Every detail on this bike is geared towards optimizing your
race, from the aerodynamic details to the bottom bracket stiffness for
efficient power transfer. Add a low weight and a geometry that puts you
in a comfortable, powerful and aerodynamic position, and you have an unbeatable
combination.

Upgrades
from the P2C
More aero
seattube - The curved seattube covers more of the rearwheel than any other cutout,
resulting in even better aerodynamics.
More aero
seatstay/seattube transition - The seatstays blend into the main triangle without
any aerodynamic disruption in the form of a monostay, thereby further improving
the aerodynamics.
Lighter
- The new P3C is 150g lighter than the P2C.
Features
The new
standard - Just like the P3 took the time trial and triathlon world by storm,
so has the P3C. Victorious in roughly half of the ProTour TTs in which it has
been entered and equally successful in Ironman Triathlons, the P3C is the reference
for the time trial bike market.
Aero headtube
- no bulky nose cone, but an extremely thin, aerodynamically optimized shape
CCS - Constant
Cross-section Seattube - The airflow over the seattube is predominantly horizontal.
The new seattube shape has a cross section shape that is separately optimized
everywhere between bottom bracket and the seatstay joint.
Integrated
Seattube collar - By integrating the seattube collar completely into the toptube,
we are able to smoothen the aerodynamic profile even further. The airflow doesn't
even see the collar, yet the seatpost can be removed with ease. By integrating
the seatpost into the frame aerodynamically but not structurally, you can fit
the P3C into any bike case and travel without a problem, something that is very
difficult to do with other integrated seatpost solutions that have the seatpost
molded into the frame in one piece and that do not allow for the seatpost to
be removed.The new system with the removable seatpost is superior not only for
traveling but also aerodynamically, as it allows the use of a much narrower
seatpost than if it was a structural part of the frame.
ICS Internal
Cable Stops - The best internal cable stop system available. Easy to install,
easy to service, easy to keep clean and improved aerodynamics.
UCI legal
- As with all our frames, the P3C is UCI legal |
