Frame and wheel notes the following. There is a 5 x 5 mm chip in the “C” in Cervelo on the non-drive side side of the head tube. There are two 3 x 3 mm chips near it. There are four chips of about 1 mm x 3 mm in size along the bottom edge of the head tube. The damage was incurred by the front brake arm rubbing against the head tube when the bike was being transported in a travel case. There is a 5 x 5 mm chip in finish of the non-drive side blade of the front fork. There are two 3 x 3 mm chips near it. The damage was incurred by the handlebars rubbing against the fork blades when the bike was being transported in a travel case. There is flaking in the finish around the first cable stop in the top tube where a corroded ferrule was drilled out. The resulting flaking in the finish was painted over. There is flaking around the front brake mount. There is a 4 mm x 4 mm abrasion on the side of the drive-side down tube just under the “C” in Cervelo. There is wear on the drive-side chain stay behind the bottom bracket from a bootie. There is wear on the bottom of the bottom bracket shell from road grit. There is wear on the underside of the front fork crown from road grit. There is wear on the inside of the non-drive side chain stay towards the intersection with the seat tube.

Water bottle cage bolts are not included.
Frame and Wheel conclusion
Frame and Wheel’s view is that the S2 is best frame set Cervelo has to offer. It is comfortable and sturdy, light and fast, reasonably priced and it has a beautiful voice that inspires new levels of dedication and performance. The 2009 model year graphics are also nice. Frame and Wheel had this frame set built up with Shimano Dura-Ace 7900, 3T bars and stem and Zipp 303 / 202 tubular wheels. It was the finest and most satisfying road bike ever for Frame and Wheel, and the new owner is likely to be satisfied too. Frame and Wheel now rides an Austro-Daimler Superleicht Carbon Di2, which is a modern day version of the bicycle Frame and Wheel raced in the 1980s and 1990s. For Frame and Wheel, this is the only marque that has a stronger and more seductive voice than the Cervelo S2; so much more, that Frame and Wheel has obtained the rights to the logo and will soon make the frame set available on the Frame and Wheel eBay Store (Please sign up for the newsletter to be informed of timing). Regardless, this Cervelo S2 is a fine frame set too and it has many more hours of racing and training remaining in its carbon fiber. The new owner will no doubt be inspired by its performance, its look, its voice and most certainly the price at which it was obtained.
