P3 Carbon by Cervélo TT/Triathlon Bike - 2008 Free Shipping!

Cervelo P3 Carbon 2008

Now in its third year, The P3 Carbon has won about half of the ProTour time trials in which it was entered, and more Ironman triathlons were won on a P3 Carbon than on any other bike model. To top it off, it was the most popular bike model on the Kona pier and at the Silverman $100,000 Challenge (which featured a 180k time trial). At Silverman, four of the five pros were on a P3 Carbon, and only one of them (Bjorn Andersson) got the bike as a sponsorship from Cervelo, the rest got it at a shop. So when real money is on the line and there are no team sponsor constraints, the pros overwhelmingly vote for the P3 Carbon.

The endorsements for the P3 Carbon are sheer endless, from the Best in Show award at its Interbike introduction to the pros who rebadge one with their sponsor's logo to those who try just that but are not allowed to by their team. From Team CSC's four team time trial victories in as many attempts to Fabian Cancellara's World Championship (with Dave Zabriskie second, also on a P3 Carbon).

How did Cervélo achieve that? The answer is quite simple, by building a bike that works and that offers exactly what the rider is looking for. Every detail on this bike is geared towards optimizing your race, from the aerodynamic details to the bottom bracket stiffness for efficient power transfer. Add a low weight and a geometry that puts you in a comfortable, powerful and aerodynamic position, and you have an unbeatable combination.

Highlights

The new standard - Just like the P3 took the time trial and triathlon world by storm, so has the P3 Carbon. Victorious in roughly half of the ProTour TTs in which it has been entered and equally successful in Ironman Triathlons, the P3 Carbon is the reference for the time trial bike market.

Aero headtube - no bulky nose cone, but an extremely thin, aerodynamically optimized shape

CCS - Constant Cross-section Seattube - The airflow over the seattube is predominantly horizontal. The new seattube shape has a cross section shape that is separately optimized everywhere between bottom bracket and the seatstay joint.

Integrated Seattube collar - By integrating the seattube collar completely into the toptube, Cervelo was able to smoothen the aerodynamic profile even further. The airflow doesn't even see the collar, yet the seatpost can be removed with ease. By integrating the seatpost into the frame aerodynamically but not structurally, you can fit the P3 Carbon into any bike case and travel without a problem, something that is very difficult to do with other integrated seatpost solutions that have the seatpost molded into the frame in one piece and that do not allow for the seatpost to be removed.

And Cervelo certainly does have first-hand experience with this, as the original Cervélo P2 was the first bike to sport an integrated seatpost that was permanently attached to the frame. While it was the best solution we could come up with back in 1996, the new system with the removable seatpost is superior not only for traveling but also aerodynamically, as it allows us to use a much narrower seatpost than if it was a structural part of the frame.

ICS Internal Cable Stops - The best internal cable stop system available. Easy to install, easy to service, easy to keep clean and improved aerodynamics.

UCI legal - As with all our frames, the P3 Carbon is UCI legal

Frameset - The P3 Carbon is also available as a frameset

P3 Carbon frameset - $3,300.00

Note 1: The above headtube lengths are for integrated headsets. To compare to non-integrated headtubes, deduct 20mm from the above lengths to adjust for the stack height needed for non-integrated headsets.

Note 2: All our TT/tri bikes have a dropped toptube and shortened headtube to enable the rider to position the aerobars low enough for a proper aero position. This means that the frame size is no longer equivalent to the seattube length, so don't determine the size that way. Simply go by the size sticker, or measure the headtube and look it up in the above chart.
