UPDATE ON CERVELO ROUVIDA RANGE I did a previous review after 2 months of riding my Rouvida Rival Road, earlier in this thread. Just to update my range: just rode 73 miles with 5050' of climbing, used 68% of battery. I modified the power curve so my green Eco (Breeze) mode was only giving me 77...

Maybe a Pinarello Nytro with a TQ50 motor would work.

Great report. Interesting where you ride. I'm coming with friends to the Dolomites next year for a week long bike tour. I'm hoping I can rent a Rouvida the for my riding. I'm 72 and enjoy the help!

This ride was done on about 50% battery. This ride was done on about 50% battery.

If you ride in Green mode, you should be able to do that distance and elevation no problem. I've done 50 miles and 5000 ft. I've also created rider profiles for better mileage when I have long rides. I think 75 miles and 6000 feet is doable with care.

Two Month Review on Cervelo Rouvida Rival Road: It's winter here in northern California, so limited riding, but still got in 500 miles. I live in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains at 2700 ft elevation, so most of my rides are 100'/mile of climbing. Most rides in winter are 25-40...

UPDATE ON MOTOR REPLACEMENT I had a noisy motor after it warmed up, as I mentioned in my post above. Fazua sent my LBS a new motor and they replaced it last week (2 hours on the shop to change it out and sync with Fazua). All is good after 3 rides of 20-30 miles each. As quiet as it should be...

I set my assistance very similar to yours. Breeze: 93w / 116 w rider River: 200w / 125 w rider Rocket: 296w /100 w rider If I ride alone, I usually stay in Breeze except for very steep hills, over 15%. I'm 5'-7 and 150 lbs. If I ride with other ebikes that like to go fast, I use River. I only...

The range extender is coming out later this year, 2024.

Six Week Review on Cervelo Rouvida Rival Road: It's winter here in northern California, so limited riding, but still got in 350 miles. I live in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains at 2700 ft elevation, so most of my rides are 100'/mile of climbing. Most rides in winter are 25-40 miles...

Just took delivery on my Cervelo Rouvida Rival and had inaugural ride yesterday. I am extremely impressed. I wanted a road bike (not a gravel bike) with a finely tuned frame. I live in the Sierra Mountains, so it's all about going up hill and blasting down. I was not disappointed by the...

On my test ride, I never heard the Fazua motor... Also, Cervelo tweaked the power curve on the Rouvida, so it's different then the Santa Cruz Skitch. Bottom line, they are both great bikes, just personal preference.

The Fazua motor has superior specs to Creo 1.2. 60Nm vs 50Nm. 450 max watts vs 320. 430 AHr battery vs 320... all for the cost of 1 pound of weight. At 28 lbs for a 54, the Rouvida is still lighter than the Creo 2. I like the tradeoff myself. Also, the Rouvida geometry is more pure road bike...

It's too bad Specialized doesn't really make a road version of the Creo 2. It is certainly a great gravel bike, and does not really offer a road option. I just test rode and bought the Rouvida Rival road. I'm strictly a roadie, and the Cervelo Rouvida is such an awesome ride. Handles like a real...

Petaluma... I'm in Nevada City.. yes, that is a consideration. I use a good usb tail light now, so I'll consider that. Thanks!

I have a 2019 Synapse Neo 1 "pre-wired" for lighting. I cannot see any plugs on the bike or openings into the battery housing to run wires. I contacted Cannondale and they said take it to a bike shop..... Has anyone added a tail and head light to their unit? Thanks!

One big improvement would be the ability to customize the steps between the assist ranges. On the Domane +HP, with Gen 4, the step between Eco and Tour is 60% to 140%, which is too wide (233% step)- this is the zone you need to fine tune to get the most miles. One way would be to have 5 zones...
