Marianne Vos and Wout van Aert have shone on every course from Namur to Zolder, winning a dozen world, European and national titles between them. Based on their feedback, we have fine-tuned every detail of the R5-CX to bring it up to world championship level. Although the R5-CX is currently reserved for professional racers, it will be available to the general public in the summer of 2022.
The R5-CX made its debut at the North American World Cup with Marianne Vos taking an impressive win in Waterloo followed by a big stage in Iowa. He is now competing on the European circuit with 13 wins for Marianne Vos and Wout van Aert, including a national championship in the Netherlands and Belgium. And most recently, with a world championship title in the Elite Women's race.
You may recall that this is not our first cross-country bike. In 2007, we built two R3 Cross frames for Jonathan Page, one of which allowed him to become the first American to reach a World Cup podium. Like the R3 Cross, the R5-CX owes much of its performance and design to the R5, but with a few key differences. This model features handling and fit based on feedback from Wout and Marianne. And, while keeping the asymmetrical BBRight buckets, we threaded them into a T47 size hole. While unique, this configuration uses standard internal and external T47 bases.
