Mike’s Bikes Exclusive Build: Race-Ready for Less

Exclusive to Mike’s Bikes, these custom builds pair a high-performance Cervélo carbon frame with carefully selected, value-driven components. The result? Best-in-class ride quality in a more accessible package. This item is brand new, though component spec may vary slightly based on availability. Every frame is backed by Cervélo’s lifetime warranty.

The Soloist name carries serious history—but this version is built for the modern rider.

Designed as the ultimate one-bike quiver, the Soloist strikes the balance between lightweight climbing efficiency and aerodynamic speed. It’s slightly lighter than the Cervélo S5, yet significantly more aerodynamic than the Cervélo R5—landing right in the sweet spot for riders who want it all.From weekday training rides to weekend race efforts, the Soloist delivers the performance to hang in the pack and the speed to break away when it counts.

FEATURES:

• Looks like a race bike, rides like a race bike: We took the handling geometry for the Soloist directly from R5. The R5 is beloved by pros and amateurs alike for its poise, stability, and precision when that killer climb turns into an even more killer descent. Soloist benefits from our decades of race bike geometry development, and comes out of the gate ready to go.  
• Fast like S5, light like R5: Soloist sits right between S5 and R5 on the performance scale, while having a price tag that’s less World Tour, more Road Trip. It’s about 250g heavier than R5, and 250g lighter than S5. It’s 190g slower than S5, but 126g faster than R5. You get the idea. It’s the ‘just-right’ answer for the rider trying to find a smart, intentional compromise.
• Hidden from the wind, no bleed necessary: The cable routing is inside the frame for aerodynamics, but doesn't go through the stem. We developed our own system that threads the cables under the stem, but through the bearing cap. Whether your position changes or you loan the bike to a friend who uses a different stem length, you won't need to bleed the brakes to swap the stem.
• Clearance to buzz the tower: The Soloist fits tires up to 34mm (measured), and wheels wide enough to support them. 
• BBRight-47: The BBRighT-47 bottom bracket, which first appeared on the R5-CX, is ideal for those who log big miles but don't have a pro wrench checking the bike over every day. It makes BB swaps a breeze (convenient if you're burning through hand-me-down components) and extends the life of the frame.
