Product Details
The Cervélo Áspero Apex XPLR 1 is a performance-oriented gravel bike designed to balance speed, durability, and off-road capability. It is built around a lightweight full carbon frame with internal cable routing for a clean integration and improved aerodynamic efficiency relative to traditional gravel platforms.
This model is equipped with the SRAM Apex XPLR 12-speed drivetrain, providing reliable and consistent shifting performance across a wide gravel-appropriate gear range when paired with its matching cassette and crank system.
