How's Cervelo's BB? | Cervelo S5 | Oompa Loompa Cycling E65

[@jaswolf1970]

A basic run through interview. As with most aero bikes you need to work the bike 1st (35km/h) before it works for you. Looks wise the Cervelo S5 is either you love it or hate it. OSPW only provides one with mental gains.

[@dionisiuskusuma1462]

Sometimes I feel confused why y'all Singaporeans complain about climbing, Singapore is pretty much a flat country. Even if there's a climb, I doubt it'd be as hard as Malaysia or Indonesia

[@jcphotos1256]

If your frame bottom bracket hole is bad, it will affect the BB bearings, regardless if you are using BBinfinite or ceramic speed. Unless an engineer measures the BB hole with proper tools, you wont be able to tell a badly made BB hole just from riding it. The BB will wear out faster than usual, and you have no reference to compare to, so you wouldn't be able to tell. Spin tests are not a good indication of bearing friction, as you arent applying any radial loads on the bearings.

[@JohnnySantoDomingo]

Considering this rider is fairly new to the game I don’t think he knew they were referring to the bb shell of the frame

[@babyrabies]

so many aero bikes but hardly any aero riders. yawn! im beginning to think im watching midlife crisis showdown.

Love the channel and what you’ve done so far. However so many bikes that just seem to have left the shop floor ending up here. Need more bikes with real character and soul….

In Sg, it's just an arms race, not a bike race.

[@JohnnySantoDomingo]

Haha true

[@dannydecker108]

Hard disagree with the "insulated bottle". The key is to load it up with ice before adding water, so it can melt throughout your ride. I've had water that's still pretty cold even after a 4h ride.

[@OompaLoompaCycling]

I was expecting the insulated bottle to retain the temperature of the liquid inside just like a thermos flask... thanks for the suggestion!

[@cabeenz]

I fill the bottle up the night before and chuck it into the freezer. The next morning I will ride with a bottle of ice and take sips of water as it melts.

[@ryankalmanovitch1309]

Great video!

[@timtaylor9590]

he said 2lbs difference in the bike makes it harder to climb? the mathematical formula says thats very minimal. i weigh 150lbs around 13 percent body fat, i could easily lose 2lbs in a day or two.

[@iMadrid11]

@@hucklejoko4838 It’s an open secret to any bike industry insider. Which Chinese factory makes the carbon frames for each brands. Joe from China Cycling channel who now works for Winspace definitely knows all the vendors. But no KZbinr or journalist will ever publicly confirm it. Since they will lose their insider access to visit factories and interview bike brands.

I ride a bb30 A bottom bracket and I have never had an issue as of yet, it's been 2 years. It's also really smooth and i have no ceramic bearings installed, I posted a video on it.

Good interview and amazing bike. This is the only aero bike that tempts me. Side note: Hambini is just a forum troll with a camera. He abuses and harasses people for attention. I don’t think it’s a good look to feature him in content.

“I chose Enve because it looks good on the bike” lmao

[@milkbunnies]

@@JohnnySantoDomingo right?!?...This is completely the wrong bike for him. He's buying it based on looks and what "other people told me." I guarantee you it'll be on sale on carousell before the end of the year. He'd get a more suitable bike (and an awesome one) for less than half what he paid for the Cervelo. Then use the rest of the money on a personal trainer for better health rather than accumulating 'fancy gear"

aero bikes are slower in a tail wind thats greater than the speed the rider is going. logic says that tail winds are about 25percent of rides. moderate to strong cross winds aero bikes are slower than climbing bikes
