Colnago V5Rs Shimano Dura Ace Di2 2025 test review Frame
The Colnago V5Rs Shimano Dura Ace Di2 2025 frame is completely new and a clear evolution of the previous model.
Lighter, aerodynamic, rigid, a competitive frame compared to the best products in the sector.
The color range, the possibility of customizing the frame and the wide choice of sizes are also excellent.
It is not a very light frame in absolute terms, but well assembled it allows you to obtain a racing bike with disc brakes under 7kg; 6.8Kg the weight of the bike in the photo.
Colnago V5Rs Shimano Dura Ace Di2 2025 test review Assemblies
The range of assemblies is all very expensive, but it would make no sense to do it differently, indeed it is a mistake to assemble this frame with mid-range components.
Campagnolo Super Record, Shimano Dura Ace or Sram Red, are the only groups to use.
Otherwise you might as well buy another product.
It remains an expensive bicycle, but well made and of quality.
Colnago V5Rs Shimano Dura Ace Di2 2025 test review Comfort
Despite the declared increase in rigidity and weight reduction, the ride comfort is good, not high, but sufficient to travel many kilometers without back pain.
Its ride comfort is at the level of other similar frames for destination, weight and price range.
Among the high-performance racing bikes it is placed in the central group, it is not an uncomfortable racing bike, but not the best for comfort either.
A good result anyway.
