Why this bike wins here
Caldera Coaster is flat, with 3.0 m of climbing per kilometre, the kind of course where aerodynamics usually counts for far more than low weight. The Cervelo S5 is an aero frame, the kind of frame that terrain favours. Disc or regular wheels is a close call: the Reserve Infinity Disc-set is 1.1 s faster than the SwissSide HADRON Ultimate 650, but 0.67 kg heavier.

The course
1 lap; kilometre positions include the lead-in, ridden once.
No mapped climbs or sprints on this route.
Mapped surfaces; the shares describe one lap.

Extra watts are what the fastest setup needs to hold its pace on each surface rather than on tarmac, averaged over the ride - they appear once a ranked setup and mapped surface positions are there to simulate .
Cervelo S5 / Reserve Infinity Disc-set · 225 W · Solo · one lap plus the lead-in; the finish estimate covers 1 lap. The line is this setup's simulated pace at every grade and surface change, over a faint elevation backdrop; the strip beneath marks the surface behind each dip.
