Cervelo Soloist | You Dont Need A $10K+ Bike to Win

The 2024 Cervelo Soloist proves you don’t need to spend US$10,000 to $15,000 to win at the highest amateur road racing levels. My fellow tester and Cat 1 racer Miles and I discuss what he likes and has changed on the $6,800, £6, Cervelo Soloist and how he’s performed racing it.
