Upgrades from Soloist Carbon

Lighter frame - While the Soloist Carbon is among the lightest frames in the ProTour (as determined by independent sources like the French magazine Le Cycle), the SLC-SL shaves another 200g off the weight to become one of the lightest frames in the world (real weight, not claimed weight) and the only in that select group with such aerodynamic features.

Higher bottom bracket and torsional stiffness - The Soloist Carbon is Jens Voigts favorite bike in 2006. So maybe there was no need to increase the bottom bracket and torsional stiffness of the SLC-SL beyond that level, but nonetheless we have raised it another 5-10% for optimum handling and safety.

Geometry

The two seattube angles (73 & 76 degrees) can only be obtained with the optional two-position seatpost. With the single-position seatpost, only the 73 degree angle should be considered

Our road bike geometry is a little different than most companies', but the important thing is that it works. Before Team CSC rode on Cervélos, it used a frame that came in 12 sizes yet several riders needed custom-made frames because none of the 12 fit. Now, they use five sizes (there is no CSC rider who needs the 61cm frame) and there isn't a single rider on the roster who needs a custom-made frame.

We see the same with our dealers, thanks to the logical size distribution customers are almost always able to find their preferred position on a Cervélo. No need for customs, certainly no need for women-specific geometry (to learn more about the fallacies of women-specific geometry, please check out this Knowledge Base article). The Knowledge Base also provides more information about our general road bike geometry philosophy.

73 Degree Seattube Angle (rear facing seatpost position)

Note 1:		The standover height is measured to the toptube directly above the bottom bracket.
Note 2:		The above headtube lengths are for integrated headsets. To compare to non-integrated headtubes, deduct 20mm from the above lengths to adjust for the stack height needed for non-integrated headsets.

Components

The SLC-SL is available as a frameset or with the DuraAce Team kit. Because Team CSC is so focused on equipment, it uses many different parts depending on the race course so there is no such thing as THE team kit. The Team kit we have put together reflects a few choices that the team makes for maximum durability, most notably the Ultegra cassette that you will find on all of their training and about half of their race wheels. We figure that just like it is for Team CSC, durability is a more important feature on your training wheels than saving a few grams. Speaking of wheels, for the complete team race kit, speak to your Cervélo dealer about a set of Zipp carbon wheels with a DuraAce cassette for racing.
