Cervélo has introduced a new OEM specification for its P-Series triathlon platform, integrating the Classified Powershift Hub into the bike’s drivetrain system.
The collaboration combines Cervélo’s aerodynamic frame engineering with Classified’s internal gear shifting technology. The new P-Series offering, which is derived from the P5 model, features a Classified 11–34 cassette paired with the Powershift Hub to deliver a wider gearing range across flat and climbing sections.
By placing the gear-changing mechanism inside the rear hub, Classified’s Powershift Hub system maintains a clean drivetrain configuration and allows riders to change gears under load without interrupting power transfer. The hub is fully integrated with Shimano Di2, enabling it to operate alongside the bike’s existing electronic controls.
Mathias Plouvier, CEO of Classified said “Cervélo has shaped the history of performance cycling, with a relentless focus on aerodynamics, efficiency and speed. We are incredibly proud that they have chosen to work with Classified.
“The P-Series is designed around the principle that every detail should contribute to performance. With Powershift, riders can change gears seamlessly under load while maintaining an extremely efficient drivetrain configuration – an important advantage in a discipline where every watt matters.
“Bringing Powershift to the P-Series is a great example of two performance-driven technologies coming together. We are very excited to welcome Cervélo to the Classified partner family.”
The addition of Cervélo to Classified’s partner lineup follows recent original equipment manufacturer (OEM) expansion announcements, as the technology partner continues to grow the adoption of its internal drivetrain systems across a range of high-performance cycling platforms.
