What do you get when you interview hundreds of riders, questioning them about their desires for the ultimate road bike and then, spend thousands of hours translating those ideas into reality? A dream come true. We call it the Fezzari Foré CR5. It is the pinnacle of road bike performance. From its state of the art, proprietary Fezzari Racing Design Xr4 3K monocoque carbon frame to its best-of-market components, the Foré CR5 is THE ultimate road bike. Our designers and engineers didn't cut corners.

Take, for instance, the state of the art proprietary Fezzari Racing Design XR5 3K monocoque carbon frame. We used the highest grade of carbon available on the market. We made it even stiffer laterally by enlarging the bottom bracket shell and strengthening the headtube. But it's even softer vertically for a smooth ride even on cobblestones. The XR5 frame was recently tested to be one of the most durable frames on the market. And, it weighs a mere 900 grams. Strength, lightweight, rigid where you need it most, and flexible enough to take the edge off of rough roads -- it's the perfect frame for anyone who wants to get the most out of their riding experience.

Next, take a look at the perfect blend of components. The Foré CR5 includes full Dura Ace components, FSA K-Force Light Carbon Crankset, Fezzari XrT 3K carbon fork with carbon steerer tube, FSA K-Force shallow drop carbon bars, 3K carbon seat post, and even carbon spacers.

Finally, add sleek graphics and a transparent finish to show off the carbon and you have it--the ultimate road ride.

You get the following upgrades over the CR3:

  1. Upgraded Shifters – from Shimano Ultegra to the flagship Shimano Dura Ace, for smoother, more precise shifting
  2. Upgraded Front Derailleur – from Shimano Ultegra to Shimano Dura Ace, which is lighter and smoother
  3. Upgraded Cassette – from Shimano Ultegra to Dura Ace
  4. Upgraded Crankset – from FSA SLK Light to FSA K-Force Light, which is lighter
  5. Upgraded Chain – from Shimano Ultegra to Dura Ace
  6. Upgraded Wheelset – Mavic Ksyrium SL, which are lighter and perform better
  7. Upgraded Brakes – from Shimano Ultegra to Shimano Dura Ace, which are lighter and smoother

When you get a Foré CR5, we custom fit it for you through our 23-Point Custom Setup program. We’ll get all your vitals so we can outfit your bike to fit you perfectly.

  The Best
by Joe Smith (Lone Tree, Colorado)

I purchased my CR5 in January 2009. Since then I have ridden it in several centuries. I cut two hours off my time in the Colorado MS-150. The bike is light, crisp, and fast. I hate I did not find Fezzari sooner. I would recommend this bike to anyone. All the folks at Fezzari were very helpful from my first phone call (I made several calls to Fezzari before I made the purchase) to calls I made to them weeks after I took delivery of the bike. If you want to improve your riding experience, I highly recommend this bike. One word that sums up Fezzari CR5: AWESOME!



  fantastic ride

Last year was my first on the road, and I put about 1400 miles on my Fezzari CR5, including three centuries. It is an incredible bike. Light, crisp, and very precise, and it climbs like a dream. Plus, the guys at Fezzari are awesome to deal with. Both over the phone and in person, they willingly answered all my questions and took very good care of me.
