Cervelo Aspero SC GRX 820 2x Carbon Wheel Exclusive Gravel Bike

Why We Like The Cervelo Aspero SC GRX 820 2x Carbon Wheel Exclusive Gravel Bike

For riders looking to trade their heavy gravel bike for a faster option, we recommend the Cervelo Aspero SC GRX 820 2x Carbon Wheel Exclusive Gravel Bike. Its lightweight carbon construction not only helps us ride faster with added power but also smooths out our ride, allowing us to feel more comfortable at higher speeds when the terrain is on the rougher side. And, although it´s optimized for gravel riding, it features a road-like geometry that places us in an aerodynamic, powerful position so we can push max watts on any surface. Cervelo originally built their Aspero with a carbon seat post, but we decided to change it up and go with the Cervelo Alloy seatpost for added durability to withstand years of abuse.

For such a high-performance frame, we need a high-performance drivetrain set up specifically for gravel use. And, with the Shimano GRX 820 2 x 12-speed drivetrain, we are ready for a successful racing season thanks to the gravel-specific gearing, trustworthy braking, and reliable shifting it provides. The gravel-optimized 48/31t chainrings maintain a tighter gear progression to keep us in control of our cadence and combine with the 11-34t cassette to provide a wide range of gearing to conquer any terrain. With the Aspero SC exclusive build, we roll out with confidence on the Shimano GRX RX880 tubeless disc wheelset for lightweight aerodynamic efficiency and stability.
