Description Technical Specs Geometry
 
As early as 2001, long before Cervelo's affiliation with Team CSC, we initiated a project called FM28, which ultimately became the Soloist Carbon. Yet this model probably shows better than any other the fruits of our labor with Team CSC.

The first years of the project were earmarked for aerodynamic testing. With the aero features settled on, focus switched to the structural design of the frame. Developments in carbon fiber frame design go very rapidly at Cervelo, so the design goals were adjusted several times along the way. Around that same time, we had started to supply frames to Team CSC and in our discussions with Bjarne Riis it became apparent that their ultimate frame closely matched what we were working on for FM28.
 
Features
  • No compromise - Extremely aerodynamic yet among the lightest frames in the ProTour and with excellent stiffness & compliance properties.

  • New profile downtube - Our work into improving the downtube and headtube on the P3C has directly benefited the Soloist Carbon.

  • Horizontal teardrop-shaped sloping toptube - Since the toptube has a slope to it, the aerodynamics can be improved by giving it the proper airfoil cross section in the direction of the airflow.

  • Stealth aero headtube - While the headtube may look round at the front, this is an optical illusion. The headtube is ultra thin and only 1mm wider than the P3C headtube. Although the leading edge is kept straight, the sides neck down in the center section, resulting in a very good airfoil shape around the headtube in combination with a classic side profile.

  • Oversized bottom bracket area - The increased volume of the bottom bracket area provides even greater bb stiffness so that Jens can continue to power away from the competition. The smooth contours of the BB volume help both for this BB stiffness and also for its strength as the fibers have a much more continuous path to transfer the loads better.

  • Wolf seatstays - The seatstays have an asymmetric design from our Wolf family of airfoil shapes, designed for optimal airflow around a thin frame member interacting with a spinning wheel.

  • ICS Internal Cable Stops - The best internal cable stop system available. Easy to install, easy to service, easy to keep clean and improved aerodynamics.
