Cervelo C3 Ultegra

Pondering a new bike. The C3 has been suggested. Would anyone have any experience of this bike, please. I am after what the marketing machines call a sportive/endurance bike. Alternatives include Synapse and Domane - carbon.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I'm looking at the same type of bikes and thinking I will get the focus paralane. Well worth a test ride if you can. My lbs will do a 2018 ultregra model for 2300.
Cannondale is great but prefer the Shimano cranks.
Specialized I didn't like the future shock
I am also considering the Parlane. A better value package, by the looks.
Aiming to stick with 2018 models.
Check out orro terra, looks great in the flesh.
C3 is lovely, a really nice frame. I’ve got an R5 as well so I’m a bit cervelo biased but it’s a lovely stiff, endurance frame. Well recommended, it’s a very stable, comfy yet stiff bike. Pick up one of the 105 models if they still have them and swap the groupo/wheels out. You then end up with a very nice bike.
Where ?
you have to call for stock and prices.

Having said that recently I was deciding between the S3 and a Giant TCR. I went with Giant but only just.
There's something about the brand Cervelo that I like.
Wow that's a great saving. I guess 2019 bikes due out soon. Although the 2018 R3 has barely been out for a few months, there were so many delays.
They have (had anyway) S3, S5, R5 C3 and P3 to shift.
That’s got me tempted, totally unsure of my sizing though, think I would be a 58.
what wheels did your C3 come with that you are you running tubeless?
Is that di2 ready?
I thought the c3 di2 disc was about just under £5k?
Think it’s usual price is around £3.8k ish
I think I might treat myself to one
Many thanks.
It seems to be hard to find a nice carbon frame for winter duty that mounts mudguards and takes flat mount discs. So far there is just the Genesis Datum, Cervelo C3/C5 and BMC Roadmachine 01/02.
Thanks moonshine, I will be ordering one next week, I want 10 mm inbetween the headset and stem,
Have a synapse as a winter bike. Taller front end than synapse so more adjustability and more upright position if that is what you are after. Much stiffer than the dale and through axles are much better.
If the post above is correct recommend travelling north and biting their hands off at those prices!! C3 is a great bike and the new pricing is more sensible. Bought mine with 40% off so was happy but wouldn't have paid £4000 for one.
For 28 mm / 30 mm tyres
