The R5-CX is built for one thing: winning. Since its debut in 2021, it’s claimed victory in 67% of its starts and finished on the podium 81% of the time—numbers that reflect the influence of Wout van Aert and Marianne Vos, who helped shape its design. The size 51 and 58 are exact replicas of their race bikes, and every angle and measurement is tuned for cyclocross speed, agility, and control. Every element is designed for cyclocross dominance. The shorter wheelbase and steeper head tube angle make the R5-CX razor-sharp in the corners and lightning-quick to accelerate. The oversized front triangle makes shouldering effortless on run-ups, while thoughtful details throughout ensure the bike performs no matter how brutal the course.
