Soloist Race 105 (2025)

The Cervélo Soloist is back — and it’s faster, lighter, and more versatile than ever. A legend reborn from the early 2000s pro peloton, the new Soloist carries forward its racing pedigree with a modern twist, designed for the rider who wants one high-performance bike that can do it all.

Balancing the light weight of the R5 with the aerodynamic advantage of the S5, the Soloist Race 105 is the perfect ‘everyday race bike’—ideal for training, crits, or weekend breakaways. It’s built around a responsive carbon frame with internal cable routing that’s aero but easy to service, plus a threaded T47 bottom bracket for durability.

With Shimano’s 12-speed 105 Mechanical shifting, hydraulic disc brakes, and a balanced geometry inspired by Cervélo’s World Tour-winning platforms, the Soloist delivers a confident, precise ride that climbs, corners, and sprints with equal poise. Clearance for 34 mm tyres ensures comfort and control on rougher roads, while hidden mounts make it practical for real-world use.
