Why this bike wins here
Manhattan Sprint 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 0.04 s faster than the Enve SES 8.9, but 0.29 kg heavier.

The course
Mapped surfaces; the shares describe the timed segment.
| Surface | Share | Distance | Extra watts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tarmac | 100.0% | 0.3 km | - |
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 .
Dynamic physics model active
Every time below is simulated for your weight, height and power, entered at racing speed rather than from a standing start.
