With victories from cobblestone Tour stages to mass sprints to the World Championships, the S3 is Thor Hushovd’s favorite bike. Aero road bikes seem to be a “trend” nowadays, but for Cervélo and its riders, they are the essence of what we do. They offer the advantages of reduced drag while preserving everything else you expect in a good road bike. Not an easy balance to strike, but 15 years of experience doing that certainly helps.
The S3 is part of the S-series, our all-round models equally at home in fast solos and hilly terrain. With just a few grams more than the R-series, it offers a true aero advantage.
1. Reduced aero drag to save energy.
2. A low geometry to put yourself in an aero position.
3. Proper road bike performance, because an aero focus shouldn’t compromise lightness, BB/torsional stiffness or comfort.
Upgrades from S2:
Lighter
Better aerodynamics (seatstays, chainstays)
Even more comfortable (seatstays)
