2008 Cervelo P3C

Archived: Frame: TIG-welded · Fork: Cervelo Wolf CL · Carbon, aero crown

• Inspect the frame in bright light, especially the head tube, bottom-bracket area, chainstays and clamped surfaces. Look for cracks, ripples, crushed sections or signs of impact.
• Inspect the fork crown, blades, dropouts and visible steerer area. Check that it is straight, securely installed and free of cracks or impact damage.

Archived: Group: Shimano Dura-Ace · Shifters: Shimano Dura-Ace Bar End · Front derailleur: Shimano Dura-Ace · Rear derailleur: Shimano Dura-Ace · Crankset: FSA SLK Light Carbon · Bottom bracket: FSA Mega EXO · Cassette: Shimano Ultegra · Rear cogs: 10-speed, 12 - 25 teeth · Chain: Shimano Ultegra

• Shift through every available gear under light load. Hesitation, skipping or inconsistent indexing can reflect wear, damage, poor adjustment or mismatched replacement parts.
• Measure chain wear with a compatible gauge and inspect chainring, cassette or freewheel teeth. A new chain does not rule out wear in the remaining drivetrain.
• Turn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Inspect crank arms, chainring bolts and pedal threads for looseness or damage.

Archived: Brakes: Cervélo Mach 2 brakes, Vision Tech TT levers

• Inspect pads and braking surfaces, check the complete cable or hose path, and confirm both controls feel consistent and return cleanly.

Archived: Wheel size: 700c wheels · Rims: Shimano R550 · Hubs: Shimano R550 · Front tire: 700c Vittoria Rubino Pro Slick Folding

• Spin both wheels and watch for side-to-side and vertical movement. Check spoke tension, rim condition and hub play.
• Inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking, plugs, bulges or exposed threads and confirm the installed sizes are safe for the rims and available frame and fork clearance.

Archived: Headset: FSA · Handlebar: VisionTech alloy base bar · Stem: Visiontech Sizemore · Seatpost: Cervelo aero carbon 2-position · Saddle: Cervélo TT special

• Apply the front brake and rock the bike to check for headset play or notchiness. Inspect the stem, handlebar and clamp zones, then confirm every fastener and control is secure.
• Check that the seatpost moves for adjustment and that the saddle, post and clamp hold securely without cracks, severe corrosion or damaged hardware.
