Rouvida Rival XPLR AXS 1

From the hot blacktop in Kona to Alpine cols to your biggest, stupidest ride, there’s a Cervélo to help you put up a PR. More than just a means to an end, though, going fast happens to be SUPER fun. Rouvida gets you to fast, well, faster. Sleekly designed around the Fazua Ride60 motor, Rouvida delivers 60nM of torque paired to a 432wH battery, and assists you all the way up to 28mph—pro peloton speeds on the road, and edge-of-control-two-wheel-drifts off road. That’s right, Rouvida comes in two configurations: road and gravel. We designed some clever interchangeable dropouts that significantly alter the geometry of the bike, so the road bike feels like a road bike, and the gravel bike feels like a gravel bike. No compromises, just speed.

FEATURES:

• Road & Gravel Geometry: Dialed handling and refined fit geometry are two longtime Cervélo hallmarks. We knew there was interest in both gravel and road performance e-bikes, so we designed some very smart dropouts to make one frame do double duty. A world away from your typical ‘flip chip,’ these interchangeable dropouts have the effect of rotating the entire frame to achieve the fit and handling you expect from a Cervélo road bike, and from a Cervélo gravel bike.
• Fazua Ride60: Fazua’s latest offering, the Ride60, has already received accolades for its ability to blend seamlessly with your pedaling input to deliver a ride that feels like an analog bike, just with a lot more oomph. We made some tweaks to give it a little more Cervélo flavor, and the result is a bike that looks right at home alongside any of our aero models.
• Vertical orientation of the battery saved 25g in the wind tunnel and is in keeping with our design aesthetics
• Road Control puts power and assist control in a natural location in the handlebar’s drop
• Indicator panel on top tube includes USB charging port for lights or accessories
• Classic Cervelo: While the design brief didn’t actually say, ‘Don’t make it look like an ebike,’ it was definitely top of mind throughout the process. Our bikes are refined, design-forward performance machines. The addition of a motor and battery couldn’t change that. From the reorientation of the battery to the relocation of the speed sensor, we made every effort to ensure that Rouvida meant Cervélo just as much as S5 or Áspero do.
