Aspero SC Rival XPLR AXS Carbon Wheel Exclusive Gravel Bike

Cervelo's Aspero SC Rival XPLR AXS Carbon Wheel Exclusive Gravel Bike is our go-to for high-speed mixed-terrain riding thanks to its lightweight build, aerodynamic shaping, and improved compliance. The Cervelo All-Carbon frame and fork are lightweight but durable enough to ride confidently over the challenging, rough terrain we encounter on gravel race courses. With the new and improved Aspero frameset, we see a slimmed downtube profile for improved compliance, dropped chainstays for added chainring clearance, and a lower standover height to make getting on and off the bike easier. Though adapted for gravel riding, this frame features a road-like geometry to keep us in a powerful, aerodynamic position so we can ride as fast as we would on the tarmac.

With such a high-performance frame, it's only fitting that a high-performance drivetrain accompanies it to push us to our full potential. The SRAM Rival XPLR AXS 1 x 12-speed groupset provides intuitive wireless shifting performance, trustworthy braking, and plenty of gearing with the 40t chainring and 10-44t cassette range. With complete confidence in our chosen system, we put the rest of our focus on the e11even Carbon Disc gravel wheelset that provides a perfect balance of aerodynamics and stability on a windy day. And, with the Vittoria Terreno Dry G2.0 tubeless tires already set up on our carbon wheelset, we are set to roll fast with minimal pit stops thanks to the durable gravel-specific construction.
