Is there any rider in the Pro Tour more exciting than Team Jumbo Visma’s Wout van Aert. Take the Tour de France last year alone: Van Aert won 3 stages, wore the Yellow Jersey for 4 days and took the Green Jersey all the way to Paris. He is considered one of the most talented riders of his generation, one of the best classics riders in the world and a shoe-in for a win at any Cyclocross World Cup. Recently Team Jumbo Visma mechanics were building one of van Aert’s trusted weapons, a new Cervelo Soloist for the 2023 season.
The new 2023 Soloist strikes the balance between lightweight, comfort and aerodynamic advantages. Slightly lighter than an S5 but significantly more aerodynamic than the R5, the Soloist is deeply rooted in the history of Cervélo.
