The P-Series frame carries the aerodynamic DNA of Cervelo's higher-tier tri offerings, built specifically for the demands of triathlon racing: a flat-bar position, long-effort efficiency, and integrated race-day logistics. At $6,950, it arrives with features that typically cost significantly more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe most significant detail in the build is the crankset: the SRAM Rival 1 AXS E1 includes an integrated power meter. For a complete bike at this price point, factory-installed power measurement is a genuine differentiator. In long-course triathlon, power data isn't a luxury accessory — it's the primary tool for executing a pacing strategy that doesn't blow up the run. Having the meter built into the crankset from day one means the bike is analytically race-ready without an additional purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eCervelo has been engineering TT and triathlon bikes since 1995, and the P-Series reflects that history in a more accessible package. The carbon construction, aerodynamic shaping, integrated cable management, and cockpit integration are not compromised features. What changes relative to higher builds in the P-Series lineup is the component tier — and even there, the Rival AXS drivetrain and Reserve carbon wheels are competitive choices that hold their own against the field at this price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eP-Series Carbon Frame and Tri-Specific Geometry\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe frame is built from carbon with aerodynamic shaping tuned for the triathlon position — a narrower, more forward stance than a road bike that requires different tube profiles and junction geometry to reduce drag. The Cervelo all-carbon tapered P fork matches the frame's aero profile and runs a 12x100mm thru-axle for front-end stiffness. The adjustable seat tube angle is one of the P-Series' defining geometry features: the frame accommodates positions from 75° to 79°, allowing riders to find the hip position that protects the hamstrings and makes the bike-to-run transition manageable. The FSA IS2 integrated headset maintains a clean front-end profile, and the Cervelo SP23 carbon seatpost is designed for the forward saddle position that tri-specific geometry demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSRAM Rival AXS 1x Drivetrain and Integrated Power Meter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe drivetrain runs SRAM Rival AXS — 12-speed wireless electronic shifting with no cables to adjust, fray, or fail on race day. The 1x configuration pairs a 48t aero chainring with a SRAM Rival D1 10-30 cassette, covering a wide enough range for most triathlon course profiles without a front derailleur adding mechanical complexity. Shifting is handled via SRAM AXS Blip controllers positioned at the bar ends — accessible from the aero position without lifting off the pads. The SRAM DUB \/ BBright bottom bracket interfaces the crankset with the frame. Braking is handled by Riderever Triva Carbon disc calipers — flat-mount disc brakes designed for the TT\/tri application — paired with Shimano CL700 Centerlock rotors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eReserve 40\/44 Carbon Wheelset\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eCervelo specs the P Rival AXS 1 with their in-house Reserve carbon wheels: a Reserve 40 front (40mm depth) and Reserve 44 rear (44mm depth), both tubeless compatible on 12mm thru-axles. The asymmetric depth pairing — shallower up front for crosswind manageability, deeper at the rear where crosswind effect on handling is less pronounced — is a sensible and well-established approach for triathlon wheel selection. Vittoria Corsa N.EXT TLR G2.0 tires in 700x29mm come installed, a tubeless-ready race tire that balances speed and puncture resilience for long-distance events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eProfile Design Cockpit and Cervelo Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe cockpit is built around the Profile Design Wing 20C aerobars with a 52 ASA SuperSonic assembly — a proven aerobar platform in triathlon racing that provides a stable base for long efforts and accommodates a range of rider positions. The Cervelo ST36 alloy stem provides the mounting foundation, with the aerobar extensions adjustable for reach and height. The Cervelo Front Computer\/Accessory Mount 810 is included and positioned for head unit access from the aero position without disrupting the bar profile or airflow around the cockpit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eIntegrated Race-Day Storage and Hydration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe P Rival AXS 1 ships with Cervelo's complete race logistics package: the Smartpak Top Tube Storage Bag 400 for mid-ride nutrition access, In-Frame Storage Rolls for both inner tube and flat kit storage within the frame triangle, and a Cervelo Rear Hydration Mount for rear bottle positioning. A Profile Design Axis Ultimate Carbon Water Bottle Cage is included for front hydration. This is a complete race-day storage solution out of the box — athletes don't need aftermarket additions to make this bike functional for a 70.3 or full-distance event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eFinal Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Cervelo P Rival AXS 1 is the most direct path onto a purpose-built Cervelo triathlon platform below five figures. The integrated power meter crankset, wireless SRAM Rival AXS drivetrain, Reserve 40\/44 carbon wheels, Profile Design cockpit, and complete onboard storage system make the value case straightforwardly clear. This is a bike that arrives ready to race, not ready to be built up. Pedals are not included. Available in six sizes from 48cm to 61cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cervelo","offers":[{"title":"Basalt \/ 48cm","offer_id":44821481783340,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C48","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Basalt \/ 51cm","offer_id":44821481816108,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C51","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Basalt \/ 54cm","offer_id":44821481848876,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C54","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Basalt \/ 56cm","offer_id":44821481881644,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C56","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Basalt \/ 58cm","offer_id":44821481914412,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C58","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Basalt \/ 61cm","offer_id":44821481947180,"sku":"0L0PSFV11C61","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 48cm","offer_id":44821481979948,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C48","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 51cm","offer_id":44821482012716,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C51","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 54cm","offer_id":44821482045484,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C54","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 56cm","offer_id":44821482078252,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C56","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 58cm","offer_id":44821482111020,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C58","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Extraspectral Mauve \/ 61cm","offer_id":44821482143788,"sku":"0L0PSFV12C61","price":6950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/7684\/9196\/files\/cervelo-p-rival-axs-1-bike-3764305.jpg?v=1771292598","url":"https:\/\/ricycles.com\/products\/cervelo-p-rival-axs-1-bike","provider":"RA Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
