But a select few brands have made it their business to change this in recent times\u2014the clear trend being faster, slicker and\u00a0more refined platforms equally capable on both road and the rough stuff.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/img_06731.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11197\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2018Haul Ass, Not Cargo\u2019 is a catchphrase Canadian manufacturer Cervelo are using to market their specialist gravel model, the Aspero. Yes it\u2019s catchy, and yes it seems to ring true\u2014this sky blue Aspero we\u2019ve recently been riding has been a blast to ride on a wide range of surfaces, situations and scenarios.<\/p>\n<h4>This Bike\u2019s Backstory<\/h4>\n<p>The bike we are reviewing today is somewhat of a custom build. You won\u2019t find this build for sale at the local build shop or online, but it is possible to have one built to the same spec. Our test rig started out as an Aspero frameset.<\/p>\n<p>The colour is \u2018Seabreeze\u2019, but\u00a0we\u2019ve been calling it sky blue, and it certainly received a\u00a0lot of attention during the\u00a0test period.<\/p>\n<p>The build was assembled by the team at Sola Sport, Aussie distributors of Easton Cycling products and accessories. Basically every component of the test rig was either an Easton or Cervelo product, the exception being the tyres which were 38mm Panaracer GravelKings.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/img_0653.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11198\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Fitting out the frameset with EC 70-level Easton equipment made a lot of sense in two regards. The first is the fact that Cervelo use a lot of Easton gear as original equipment; the second being the quality, workmanship and strong reputation Easton have earned over the years.<\/p>\n<p>Starting from the cockpit: the test rig was fitted with the EC70 flared gravel bar. At 440mm wide, this bar flares prominently from 4 to 16 degrees and provided comfort and good control on the mixed surfaces we rode. The bars were expertly wrapped in Easton\u2019s MicroFiber tape that gripped as good as it looked and set the bike off very slickly.<\/p>\n<p>Moving rearward, and the build featured an EC90 ally stem. Behind that is Cervelo\u2019s custom Aspero A-Series utility (or Bento) bag. This is attached to the top tube via two internally concealed hex screws. It\u2019s a handy storage area for keys, bars, gels\u2026small go-to items you may need during the day.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/img_0654.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11199\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To the rear of the toptube, and behind the neat \u2018A-Series Aspero\u2019 graphics is an alloy Easton seat post clamp that secures the company\u2019s 27.2mm alloy post. Saddle-wise, the test bike featured a Prologo NDR, a comfortable seat well-suited for gravel and off-road riding.<\/p>\n<h4>2x Drivetrain<\/h4>\n<p>With speed, stiffness and efficiency front and centre here, the bike has a lot in common with Cervelo\u2019s R series. The Aspero features dropped seatstays that are smoothly shaped and moulded into the sculpted seat tube, the stays flow down to the neatly integrated rear dropouts. Fitted with Shimano Di2 GRX, the flat mount discs integrate perfectly with the frame, while the derailleur wiring is neatly ported into a rubber lug on the drive side.<\/p>\n<p>Wheel-wise, the bike was fitted with Easton\u2019s second-tier EC70AX gravel-specific wheelset. A full review of these featured in the April\/May edition of Bicycling Australia and can now be read online at www.bicyclingaustralia.com.au.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike a lot of gravel builds these days, the test bike was assembled with a 2x drivetrain. The crankset is Easton\u2019s top-level carbon EC90SL, while the chainrings were the companies 47\/32 combo. In conjunction with the electronic GRX front derailleur, shifting was surprisingly smooth and effortless.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/d3c2f1d2-b04c-424f-8e12-5da8ed6ca561.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11200\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While initially disappointed to be embarking on a gravel sortie with 2x drive, I soon realised the many attributes of the system. Range-wise, with the 34\/11T cassette on the back, gearing covered the full gamut required for a 50\/50 mix of fast road and gravel, including decent climbs, undulating bitumen and loose, gritty descents.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing it all together, and with a build weight of just over 8kg, this machine truly lives up to its go-fast status. Even with the 38mm Panaracer tyres fitted, the bike felt raring to go and unrestrained on the bitumen. It felt fast and particularly comfortable\u2014the geometry coming into play and obviously the expansive tyres and wide rims coming into play.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>&#8220;\u2026It felt refined, well thought out, and surprisingly capable<br \/>\nas an all-rounder, and it was a genuine shame to have to hand it back\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Bunnyhop the bitumen and get on the gravel and that\u2019s where this bike\u2019s speed, agility and handling really shine through. While the 2x groupo feels more at home on the road, the tyres, geometry and flared bars significantly enhance the rig\u2019s off-road attributes. Combine these factors and the Aspero begins to stand out as a legitimate all-rounder.<\/p>\n<p>We tested the bike with several tyre widths on 700c wheels, the frame and fork designed to accommodate tyres to more than 40mm. Obviously 650b wheels can also be fitted with these taking tyres to at least 47mm and\u2014by our measurements\u2014considerably more.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/b723db7f-f6e7-438b-a0e6-afb5b100d8b2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11201\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cervelo have added another unique touch to the Aspero, a \u2018flip-chip\u2019 in the base of the fork. Known as a \u2018Trail Mixer\u2019, this simple addition keeps the trail measurement consistent regardless of 700c or 650b wheels and tyres being used.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"alignright\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyloaded alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/d1c9b2a0-f58c-4d80-b248-c0c09c8cea3d-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"464\" height=\"348\" data-expand=\"600\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cyclingclassics.com.au\/bowral\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/d1c9b2a0-f58c-4d80-b248-c0c09c8cea3d-1.jpeg\" \/><figcaption>The test rig was fitted with a Prologo power-style saddle\u2014the centre cut-out and overall dimensions of the saddle made for fast, efficient and comfortable adventure riding.Overall the bike felt smooth and comfortable on the road and light, fast, sure-footed and controllable on the gravel. It felt refined, well thought out, and surprisingly capable as an all-rounder, and it was a genuine shame to have to hand it back. The Easton components complimented the build perfectly, their subtle matt black finish helping accentuate the blue\/white colouring and bring out the best in the bike.<strong>A True All-Rounder<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you\u2019re in the market for not only a gravel bike but an all-rounder\u2014a commuter, gravel road fun machine or even a lightweight weekend bike-packing platform\u2014I wouldn\u2019t hesitate in recommending the Aspero.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s just one problem\u2026as this review was being completed Cervelo announced an addition to the Aspero range\u2014the Aspero 5. So now you may have some thinking, budgeting or explaining to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A truly capable all-rounder. Fast on the road and gravel, a versatile bike be it commuting, gravel racing, weekends away or N+1 option.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finish<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a word, stunning. The test rig received numerous positive comments during the test period. Finish is outstanding; the bike looks as good as it performs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Value For Money<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly good, with the Aspero starting at around $4000.
