The new Áspero remains true to its original brief, but with improvements including a threaded BB shell, neater cable routing, and a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger.

In 2019, Áspero took the gravel world by storm, heralding a new era of speed in gravel. 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. It is also more aerodynamic, focusing on the conservation of energy.

Cervelo dropped the seat stays to provide more compliance and reduced front-end stiffness to make long races more comfortable. Increased mud clearance has also been added. The result is a bike that feels like the original Áspero, but is faster, more comfortable, and more versatile.

Features:

• Threaded Bottom Bracket: Aspero uses the asymmetrical T47a threaded bottom bracket, a simple, rider-serviceable interface.
• Universal Derailleur Hanger: The UDH standard is ideal for SRAM’s Transmission drivetrains and ensures compatibility for future developments.
• Internal Cable Routing: Shares bearing dimensions with R5, Soloist, R5-CX, and Caledonia, allowing for various combinations of bearing caps and stems.
