Cervélo Soloist/S1 frameset 56cm

Posted on
  • The original Cervelo Soloist / S1 aluminium frame set from 2005/2006.

    3rd road bike and 4th on the way, and wont be riding it till next summer so last in first out.

    Included in sale;
    Frame
    Seat post
    seat clamp
    FSA Head set
    Deda 120mm 8 degree stem
    Deda Carbon Fork + expander bung
    Aluminium Bottle cages

    Full aerofoil down tube, seat tube and seatpost, skinny headtube, dropped seat stays and internal cabling. Ahead of its time and about as aero as it gets.

    This is the earliest aluminium model with the anodised finish, there was two or three painted versions before they went carbon. Anodising is in very good condition for age, no scratches, dings or cracks. The odd abrasion/ rub mark here and there, comes with all the original cable grommets. Spent most of its life as an amateur road TT race day bike, hence the condition.

    Comes with original proprietary aluminium seatpost with the reversible head for TT positioning and the supplied brass shim. Not the lightest and needs carbon paste to stop slippage, beer can shims also work for a full wrap around (join at the back).

    I have fitted NOS Dedacciai forks with a 250mm steerer, straight aero blades, good clearance and light. A few scratches from storage. In my opinion these are the best replacement you can get, as the 3T Funda that they eventually supplied this frame with struggles to clear most 25mm tyres.

    I can supply the original Cervelo Wolf forks with some notice however I would not reccomend riding them. They have a mild steel steerer that are known to corrode and brake.

    I had this built up with Ultegra and high spoke count aluminium wheels and it came in at under 8kg without any exotic parts. It would make a weight weenie build without much effort.

    1 1/8th headtube
    Threaded external british BB
    Good amount of clearance for 25mm tyres on wide rims.
    Bare frame weight is ~1400g
    Bare fork weight is ~ 400g.

    Collection Hackney.

  • Super cool

  • Nice build with the period crankset and modern gruppo

  • Aah man, dream bike from when I got into road cycling! Sadly don't need another project but I'm sure someone will, GLWS

  • Thanks! Crankset also for sale

  • Price reduced - Moving house in 2 weeks, if anyone can collect before then you can have the ultegra 6600 crankset and BB thrown in for for free. ( it has a slight patch of corrosion on the axle but never noticed it when pedalling) I also have the original forks which will be included and you can choose from a blacked out 120mm bontrager 7deg stem or the deda one matching the forks...
