Description
With progressive cross-country race-inspired geometry and a super lightweight frame, the Cervelo ZFS-5 Mountain Bike is one of our top choices for a fast and capable cross-country ripper. The ZFS-5 uses a single-pivot, flex-stay suspension for optimal efficiency and power delivery, while the 29-inch wheels maintain our speed when rolling over rocks and roots. With 100mm of rear travel, the ZFS-5 is a rocket when climbing technical trails, while the descent is aided by the slack 67. 8-degree head tube angle, allowing us to maintain laser-like precision handling and still confidently handle steeper descents.

The ZFS-5 frame is finished off with chainstay and downtube protection, two water bottle mounts, and an integrated chain guide.

The RockShox SIDLuxe rear shock is super lightweight, has outstanding small bump sensitivity, and has a 3-position remote lockout for climbing and pedaling efficiency. Up front, the RockShox SID SL Select 100mm fork handles chunk and drops on the course with ease, and also features a remote lockout so we can keep our hand on the handlebar and lockout our suspension. SRAM’s Level Bronze 4-piston brakes provide tons of power on tap for riding at race speeds, While Maxxis Rekon Race tires on the front and rear ensure low rolling resistance without sacrificing grip. This build is finished off with Race Face ARC 37 aluminum rims paired with DT Swiss 370 hubs to give us technical performance on the trails at a low…
