Neither bearing cap is included in the calculation of the stack height -- that top of the measurement is the top center of the head-tube.

Hi again Spencer, unfortunately I really can't comment on Visions products, but you're right, you would need everything to be compatible with the 1-1/4" upper bearing on the Soloist.

With that said, if you are interested in converting your Soloist to internal cable routing, you can do that with a set of our bearing caps and spacers along with a new stem that are all designed for internal cable routing.

If you go to a certified Cervelo dealer, you can reference these parts that you'd need for the conversion:
BC-ST32 (Internal routing bearing top cap)
SK-032 (Internal routing spacers)
ST31/32 Stem (ST31[carbon], ST32[alloy]; stems for D-shaped steerer for internal routing)

Using those parts above you can achieve internally routed cabling with your Soloist, but this wouldn't be an integrated stem/bar set-up.

Thanks for contacting us! The first step would be to purchase one of our ACR headsets. You can use this tool to find ACR headsets compatible with the frame:

Atop the headset you’ll need an ACR cone spacer like this one:

but for the Soloist model. Those are in production now and we should see them in the next few months.

Okay, I heard back from FSA and cervelo about a couple things.

Cervelo on whether the 14mm spacer is included in the stack measurement:

Cervelo on using ACR internal routing:

So that means that the jumbo bikes are either using some kind of 3D printed or pre production option. I'm still curious as to whether the 1.5" spacer would work just as well, but definitely interested in a 3D printed version too. Just looking at the headset diagram it doesn't seem like you would need to change the headset itself out to run ACR.

Hope this helps someone!

Just pulled the trigger on an ultegra group to build up a soloist. I'm about to buy the frame itself, but I am planning to run a vision metron 5d acr. Has anyone yet figured out what acr headset components I need to fully integrate the cables? After watching the jumbo visma build video it looks like I might just need the acr top cap but want to be sure. I have also sent FSA an email so we will see.

So at least you can swap that lazy cockpit with something integrated? Should come with one TBH

IMO they added flake to all colors otherwise it would be the close to same weight as the R5 at double the price. All colors looks great and shimmer nice.

Is this the final conclusion from the collective bike brain trust here on Weight Weenies?
