The Cervélo Soloist is your breakaway machine for every ride. This is the bike that refuses to compromise, blending blistering speed, true versatility, and race-proven performance into one incredible package. Reimagined from its legendary early-2000s predecessor, the modern Soloist is built for riders who demand one bike that does everything exceptionally well.

Think of it as the sweet spot between the featherweight climbing prowess of the R5 and the wind-cheating efficiency of the S5. Whether you're hammering through intense training sessions or launching that decisive race day attack, the Soloist has your back. It works seamlessly with both mechanical and electronic shifting, adapting to your setup and ensuring you're always ready to push your limits. Chasing personal records or riding for the sheer thrill of it, this bike rises to every occasion.

The Soloist borrows its geometry from the acclaimed R5, delivering precise, confidence-inspiring handling whether you're grinding up climbs or railing descents at speed. Integrated cable routing keeps things sleek and aerodynamic without turning every adjustment into a headache, while generous clearance for 34mm tires means you can tackle any road surface with ease. The robust BBRight T-47 bottom bracket is engineered for serious mileage, offering bullet-proof reliability and straightforward maintenance when you need it.

Here's where it gets really good: the Soloist comes in 250 grams lighter than the S5 while being faster than the R5. It's the ultimate fusion of performance and practicality. From Tuesday morning training rides to epic weekend adventures, the Cervélo Soloist is the bike that's always ready for whatever you throw at it.

Best of Both Worlds

Soloist sits right between S5 and R5 on the performance scale, while having a price tag that’s less World Tour, more Road Trip. It’s about 250g heavier than R5, and 250g lighter than S5. It’s 190g slower than S5, but 126g faster than R5. You get the idea. It’s the ‘just-right’ answer for the rider trying to find a smart, intentional compromise.
