Cervelo ZFS-5 Review | A brand new XC bike that's surprised us in more ways than one

Great review! I will order a ZFS-5 frame to build my own 120/115 version. Any advise on wether to go with Fox or Rockshox? is the Fox SC34 / Float combination worth the premium price over the SID / SID Luxe?

'Off road vacuum cleaner' :-) a new technical term for the workshop

I am considering the 100mm version and add a dropper to it as I don’t really need the extra travel where I live, not even on my long marathon rides.
Have you tested the xc version?

What sort of frame warrenty in years with this bike?
If you had to choose between the 120mm Cervelo or the 120mm Specialized sworks Epic Evo what do you choose?

Dear bike manifacturers: STOP. ROUTING. CABLES. THROUGH. HEADSETS. The only way to get these idiots to listen is by not buying their shitty bikes.

Good review!!!!
This bike shows that it is not necessary to innovate, simply learn from others and do things better

LoL at that price.... 😂 taking the piss as always.

Dem seat stays are skiiiinnny

Was this filmed with an iPhone 1?

Please get Sepp one and enter him into the Cape Epic please!

lol the mach 4 sl has way better components... mixing and matching sid and fox is gross

Awesome cool bike

Another overpriced Cervelo.

Looks like a Blur

Wait..wrong channel

Great review! Nice bike! But I 'm wondering. Who told some brands that if you don't race you don't need a remote lockout? On some trails with my Canyon Lux I change suspension mode almost as often as shift the gear.

Curious why did you guys review the trail version and not the 100mm XC version? I’m guessing it rides more like the Lux WC.

Great bike for cashed up roadies wanting to get into MTB. $12k doesn't even get you Fox Factory suspension these days - insane.

How does it compare to the Epic Evo?

Knock off of the Epic Evo

It looks exactly like the Specialized Epic evo. Nice copy 👏👍

Great review! Sounds like the riding characteristics are in the same end of the XC spectrum as the Merida ninety-six, also with the burlier trail spec available.

Another excellent review Will

Great review as usual guys! I've been on mine for a month now and it truly surprised me with just how playful and trail bikey it can feel! I was expecting this to be far more 'road' orientated and less supple on the suspension. Love mine and will be my go to trail bike over the summer. I'll be fitting the remote to a rear shock over the summer for exactly what you said. I've fitted mine with Forekasters too which is super fun.

I'm disappointed you didn't call out the headset cable routing as a con
