The Cervélo Test Team has finally completely traded in their P3 bikes for the speedy P4.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
Carlos Sastre’s P4 is essentially team-issue but for a few special touches.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
Rotor has provided Sastre with a specially finished pair of its 3D cranks. All of the time trial bikes are also fitted with a specific version of the 3D with smooth crankarm surfaces, solid-sided chainrings and a full chainring disc instead of the usual five-arm unit.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
The standard Rotor 3D crank includes channels milled on the surface to save weight.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
The Cervélo P4’s rear brake is mounted inside the chain stays.James Huang/BikeRadar.com

The Cervélo Test Team is using modified Elite aero bottle cages instead of the specially integrated setup originally designed for the P4.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
The substituted Elite aero bottle and cage setup isn’t as aero as the especially integrated one that comes with the P4 but test engineer Damon Rinard says it’s still faster than nothing at all.James Huang/BikeRadar.com
