DESCRIPTION
The Caledonia-5 is designed for those who push the limits of endurance cycling, offering a perfect balance between comfort and performance. Whether you're racing traditional Brevets or tackling new ultra-distance challenges like the Transcontinental, the Caledonia-5 is built to excel. Introduced in 2020, this bike quickly became a favourite among athletes who demand both speed and durability from their equipment. The bike's design focuses on long-distance comfort without sacrificing the responsive handling that Cervélo is known for. The addition of in-frame storage, a feature inspired by the P-Series, allows riders to carry essential tools and supplies discreetly and securely.
Refinements to the Caledonia-5 include enhanced comfort features, such as dropped seat stays for increased flexibility and a more compliant ride, making it an ideal choice for rides that stretch into the triple digits on the odometer. Despite these comfort-oriented improvements, the Caledonia-5 maintains the stiffness and pro-level responsiveness required for high-speed racing. It also supports larger tyres up to 36mm and includes fender mounts, making it versatile for various riding conditions. Additionally, the Caledonia-5 is UCI approved and comes with a lifetime warranty, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality and durability.
Features
- Aerodynamics: Completely internal housing and aero tube shapes for free speed, especially beneficial during long rides against the wind.
- In-Frame Storage: Convenient storage compartment for a tube, small multi-tool, and CO2 canister, easily accessible even with gloves.
- Refined Design: Improved comfort and fit adjustments, including a split bearing cap for easy modifications without re-cabling.
- Reserve 42|49 Wheels: Designed with Turbulent Aero technology for all-day capability and aerodynamic efficiency, backed by a lifetime warranty with no-fault crash replacement.
- Geometry: Available in multiple sizes (48, 51, 54, 56, 58, 61) with detailed specifications to fit a wide range of riders.

The sizing chart is a great place to start when picking your next bike but everyone will fit a bike a bit differently. Your torso, arm, and leg lengths all play into what size of bike you may need. Plus, there's your own personal preference.
We always recommend swinging by the shop and taking the bike that you're looking for a spin to see how it feels. If you're unable to come by, looking at the geometry of your current bike and comparing it is a good place to start. If you have any further questions, our customer service team is there to help.
