Cervelo Rouvida Rival XPLR AXS 1 2024

Description

Cervelo have surprised us with their first ever foray into e-Bikes and their unique approach to the design and production of the Rouvida has really captured our attention thanks to its super-versatile carbon frame and powerful, efficient Fazua e-bike drive system.

The Cervelo Rouvida has been sleekly designed around a super-compact but powerful Fazua Ride60 motor located at the bottom bracket and delivering 60Nm of torque. This almost completely silent motor is paired with a slim 432Wh internal battery located in the downtube, with the drive system assisting you up to the usual 15.5mph legal cut-off.

Whether you choose to ride your Rouvida on or off-road that pedal assist up to 15.5mph really comes into play on those long tarmac climbs or steep, technical gravel tracks, helping to keep your momentum up and your pedaling cadence silky-smooth. When you do hit that motor cut-off there’s no drag from the cranks and with such a compact, lightweight drive system the bike still feels spritely, responsive and agile.

Cervelo have seamlessly integrated the Fazua drive system into the Rouvida, with the overall look of the frame and fork being slick and aero; it’s fair to say that if you lined up the Rouvida alongside their Soloist or S5 aerodynamic road Bikes it wouldn’t look out of place and you probably wouldn’t even notice that it is in fact an e-bike. Cervélo took the Rouvida into the wind tunnel as part of the design process and tweaked the placement of the internal battery in the downtube to improve aerodynamics and maintain the overall design aesthetics of this powerful e-road-bike.
