- By Aaron Hersh
- Published Oct 26, 2011
Not only are the Slice 5 ($2,149) and the Lucero ($2,650) similarly priced all-carbon tri bikes, but they also have nearly the same geometry. We performed a side-by-side analysis to find what differentiates these two similar-fitting rides.
Frame fit
Both bikes are designed for a moderately upright and comfortable triathlon position. The most important fit dimensions of the S, M and L Lucero frames are within millimeters of the corresponding Cannondale sizes. The Lucero comes in four sizes; the Slice comes in six.
