"Let's get real, comfort and endurance riders shouldn't be eyeing the Cervelo R5 in the first place. It's a purebred racing machine, not a cozy weekend cruiser. If you're prioritizing comfort, you'll want to look elsewhere. That being said, the R5's advanced materials and frame design do offer some vibration absorption, but don't expect a magic carpet ride. The aggressive geometry will still transmit road buzz and jolts to the rider. If stability and control are your top priorities, you'll want a cake, not a scalpel."
