Great videos however. Makes me want to buy a Cervelo everytime I watch em

I subscribe to their general mailing list which reminds me to have a look for new ones now and again. As I say the series is nearly finished now so its a treat for anyone who hasn't seen it.

I AM getting a Cervelo next year if I give up smoking. ('Er indoors says.)These vids are partly responsible.:)

R3 or RS??. Decisions decisions. (Evil Chuckle.)

I live in hill country and I am about as aero as a parachute myself so any of the S series would be wasted on me. Pretty sexy though.:cool:

The 2010 version is fugly. Black and gray. Actually most of the 2010 paint jobs are usually.

I am not liking all those green accents, ugly bike. Probably would have been better if they had just done the whole bike in a green paintjob and laid off the decals etc.

Have they changed the frame for the S3 this year or does it still not work with a rake of wheels?

I like the 2010 paint better than this years. I would be hoping to get a 2009 frame at a discount when the time(mar/apr) comes though.Put the saving towards a half respectable set of wheels maybe.

Anyone spots a bargain 56cm R3 or RS frameset in the meantime give us a shout.

Must get back to my Stop Smoking book now.:)

Most of the 2009 frames are already gone from the big suppliers. There are a few still around but the discounts are all only around 15%.
http://www.5339.co.uk/ have some good deals on ex demo models from time to time.

RS(where I am leaning atm) for 1299 sterling. I know the chances of finding a bargain in my size in a few months are slim but I really can't buy until then. There may be one still lurking somewhere though.

Even 15% discount is a good chunk towards a mid range wheelset.

I wonder what the story would be with the lifetime original owner warrenty on an ex demo??

Looks like they don't. Hadn't even considered that. They had shown up in my google searches for an S2 frameset.

Nice how they skipped over the results of the final stage too, with a clever cut to make it sound like he got a stage win.

However these videos have probably sold a lot of bikes for Cervelo and I'd say their sponsors love em too. I know Casteli sold more Cervelo gear in the last year than any other kit.

This last episode is a bit hit and miss alright.
The whole series is a promo of course but well made and interesting enough in places imo.
I am a fan of Sastre and Hushovd though so I may be biased.
