Expirience with the Cervelo ZHT 5 XX SL AXS

Cervelo ZHT 5 XX SL AXS Review
Ludwig Döhl
Admittedly: I, too, was taken aback when Cervelo unveiled its first mountain bike in the fall of 2022. Until now, the brand had been exclusively involved in road cycling, but its debut for trail use is likely to raise the eyebrows of die-hard mountain bikers as well. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. One thing shouldn't be underestimated: In the uphill, the Cervelo with its overall sporty orientation makes it really hard for on sporty excursions competitors to catch up.

Geometry

Je steiler der Winkel des Sitzrohrs ist, desto effizienter können Sie in die Pedale treten.
