WELCOME RADICAL | INNOVATIVE | MAVERICK At Cannondale, we don’t run with the crowd. ‘Same old, same old’ doesn’t work for us. We don’t apply copy-and-paste solutions or make identikit bikes. We disrupt and deconstruct, reimagine and reinvent, with passion and integrity. It’s been our way since 1971. Welcome to Cannondale. You don’t deliver radical innovations like Flow Modelling or Asymmetric Integration by following the herd. And you can’t re-define genres, as we have with the Slate, by accepting received wisdom. Who else would have created the single-sided Lefty fork? Or the radical, SuperV DH4000, the world’s first production downhill specific mountain bike? Free thinkers stay free. And keep thinking. Which brings us to now. The Cannondale instinct to disrupt runs through our new range like never before, uniting bikes as radically different as the SuperSix EVO and the FAT CAAD. And when we blur the lines, things get more interesting still. Who says a drop-bar bike can’t have trail-inspired geometry? Well, everybody, it seems, except us. Welcome to the new CAAD X and Super X. It’s why we question everything. When road bikes were steel and skinny tubed, we produced bikes that were aluminium and fat. The ‘experts’ said we were wrong, until we started taking stage wins at the Tour de France, and the Maglia Rosa at the Giro d’Italia. Now the same ‘experts’ say that aluminium is yesterday’s news, but we’ve never abandoned the material with which we made our name and continued to innovate by pioneering a sophisticated, computer-controlled process that eliminates every extraneous gram of material to create the world’s finest aluminium bicycle in the CAAD12. Welcome to SmartForm Construction. A bike that is agile must also be nervous at high speed, right? And one that is stable is also sluggish at low speed? Wrong. What if you made the head angle progressively slacker, increased the fork rake and reduced the trail? Then you’d have something that offered the best of all worlds to your off-road bike, right? Welcome to OutFront geometry. Of course, it’s not all radical innovation. Where our established technologies continue to lead, we’ve refined them further. The Hollowgram chainset has become hollower still with the SiSL2. We’ve developed our BB30 bottom bracket standard, Cannondale’s ‘open source’ and widely adopted offering to the industry, by adding 5mm to the non-drive side of the bottom bracket affording a stiffer drivetrain delivery and allowing for the use of wider tyres. Welcome to BB30A. It’s 46 years since Cannondale was founded in Connecticut, USA, still our home today, but we’re not ones to focus firmly on the past. It’s fun to reflect on multiple World Championship wins, five victories at the Giro d’Italia, countless Tour de France stage wins, and having some of the best athletes on the planet represent our brand and redefining the cycling landscape, but we’re all about now. Future perfect. Welcome to Cannondale. Welcome to 2017.

AWARD WINNING TECHNOLOGY Widely regarded as the bike industry’s leading innovator with game-changing technologies, Cannondale with its handcrafted bicycles continues to be awarded by the media from both inside and outside the cycling world including: ‘PUBLISHER’S AWARD FOR INNOVATION’ AND THE ‘EDITOR’S CHOICE AWARD’ - BICYCLING MAGAZINE ‘TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE YEAR AWARD’ - VELONEWS MAGAZINE ‘BEST TECHNOLOGY AWARD’ - BIKE MAGAZINE Many of the product ideas that keep Cannondale on the cutting edge come from the professional racing teams and athletes. The feedback provided by Cannondale’s riders around the world fuels a near constant stream of new innovations and improvements to existing products, which emanate from a huge team of design engineers using best-in-class production processes – always with a laser-focus on a rider-first mentality. Cannondale’s refinements aren’t limited to just the competitive road racing and mountain bikes, either; these insights gained through racing coupled with a peerless desire for constant improvement also benefit the wide array of new lightweight recreational bikes and urban bikes, as well as state-of-the-art cycling apparel and parts & accessories.

THIS IS SUMMED UP IN CANNONDALE’S MANTRA: TO CREATE THE PERFECT RIDE.

SYSTEM INTEGRATION

Ai DRIVETRAIN LEFTY

OUTFRONT

BB30 HOLLOWGRAM

WHAT IT IS: Our philosophy of designing frames and key components together as a system to achieve higher levels of performance.

WHY IT MATTERS: Si allows our engineers to create better performance solutions like BB30, Ai and OutFront without having to wait around for the rest of the industry to decide it's a good idea.

We pride ourselves in making the most kickass, cutting edge frames in cycling. That’s great and all, but you don’t race a frame, you race a complete bike, so it just seems like common sense to design it like one. The essence of our System Integration philosophy is that if key components of the bike are Optimised to work specifically with each other and with the frame, the result is a better performing bike. Rather than limiting ourselves by designing frames to accept off-the-shelf standards, we develop component technologies and frames as a complete package, each designed specifically for the other. Technologies like Lefty, BB30, HollowGram, OutFront Steering Geometry and our Ai Drivetrain offer real, tangible benefits to the rider, and all are a direct result of our System Integration philosophy. Si bikes are lighter, stiffer, better handling and simply faster than anything else out there. Don't compromise…Optimise!

‘SYSTEM INTEGRATION IS ALSO KEY TO LOWERING WEIGHT. BY USING A PROPRIETARY SEAT POST, HEAD SET, FORK AND CHAINSET, THE TOTAL SYSTEM WEIGHT IS IMPRESSIVELY LIGHT. CANNONDALE’S HOLLOWGRAM SI AND SISL CHAINSETS ARE REPORTED TO BE AMONG THE LIGHTEST AND STIFFEST AVAILABLE.’ - CYCLING WEEKLY

ASYMMETRIC INTEGRATION

Drivetrain 6mm to the right

Rim in line with seat tube

2 Chainring Compatible

Great mud and tyre clearance Front Derailleur 6mm to the right â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ample tyre clearance for super short chainstay Even spoke length, tension and bracing angle Drivetrain 6mm to the right

WHAT IT IS: A proprietary system in which Cannondale moves the drivetrain outboard by 6mm to allow for ultra-short chainstays and a stiffer rear wheel, with none of the usual compromises.

WHY IT MATTERS: Short chainstays improve traction and agility. Ai allows us to engineer ultra short chainstays, without sacrificing tyre clearance, chainstay stiffness or the ability to run dual chainrings. And as a bonus, it also creates a stiffer, stronger rear wheel.

Short chainstays. They're so hot right now. These days, everyone's talking about how short their chainstays are. Soon, companies will be claiming they have chainstays shorter than the effective radius of their wheels. And for good reason. Short stays are great for traction - they get the rear wheel in under the rider's weight better on steep climbs - and they bring some much-needed agility and nimbleness to bikes with big diameter wheels. But let's get real for a second. Space in that rear triangle is already at a premium, so if you want to move the rear wheel even further in, something's got to give. If you look at most of the bikes out there with short chainstays, you'll notice that they've made some significant sacrifices to get there. They've gotten rid of the front derailleur and 2nd chainring. They've given up clearance for bigger tyres or mud. They've made their driveside chainstay super skinny and flexy. Or most likely, some unholy combination of all three. We had a better idea. Our Ai system simply shifts the chainrings, front derailleur and chainstay over by 6mm, which creates tons of room for the wheel to come forward, shortening the stays without sacrificing anything. But of course, if you move the chainrings over, the rear cogs need to move over the same amount to maintain ideal chainline. Rather than creating some special wider, heavier rear hub, the Ai system simply takes a standard rear wheel and re-dishes it over by 6mm. The result? Even spoke angles and tension on both sides, resulting in a massively stiffer, stronger rear wheel, with no additional weight. Thanks to our System Integration philosophy, Ai lets you have your short chainstay cake and eat it too! Ultra short chainstays, full tyre clearance, 2x compatibility, robust chainstays and a stiffer, stronger rear wheel to boot. What's not to like? Ai is the smartest way to short stays.

OUTFRONT OPTIMISED STEERING GEOMETRY

Slack Head Angle

Long Offset Long Front Center

Tight Trail

WHAT IT IS: OutFront Steering Geometry pairs a slack head angle with a long fork offset (rake) to increase stability and confidence while maintaining agility.

WHY IT MATTERS: OutFront gives you the best of both worlds: Stable, confident handling at high speeds, and quick, nimble handling at slow speeds.

Conventional thinking says that bike handling is either quick and agile, which makes them nervous and twitchy at speed, or it is slack and stable, which makes them sluggish and floppy when things slow down. OutFront Steering Geometry proves conventional thinking wrong. OutFront starts with a progressively slack head angle, which improves high-speed stability and confidence, and pairs it with a longer-thannormal fork rake (offset). This long rake does two important things: One, it increases Front-Center distance more than the slack head angle could on its own, which puts the wheel further out in front of the rider, helping it ride up and over obstacles and reducing the likelihood of going over the bars in rough terrain or under panic braking. Two, it actually REDUCES a crucial measurement called “trail”. Trail is the distance between where the head angle line, and a line drawn vertically down from the axle, meet the ground, and it is a key driver of the self-centering effect of bicycle steering. The bigger the “trail” measurements, the greater the self-centering effect and the slower the bicycle will steer. By using a longer fork rake to reduce the trail, we can exploit the stability of a slack head angle, without the sluggish slow speed handling usually associated with it. It's the best of both worlds: slack and stable on fast, challenging terrain, yet quick and agile at slow speeds and on climbs.

‘THE 55MM FORK OFFSET AND LONG-ISH FRONT END ADDS UP ON PAPER TO HIGH-SPEED STABILITY AND LOW-SPEED CONTROL.’ - BIKERADAR

LOCKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;R

LOCKING PIVOT THRU AXLES

A frame is only as stiff as its weakest parts. On dual suspension bikes, those weakest parts are often the crucial bearings and links that join the swingarm to the front triangle. The vague, imprecise sensation felt on so many bikes is caused by the subtle movement and flex that occurs in the connecting hardware as the loads on the bike shift from side-to-side. To combat this, we created LockR. The LockR pivots are oversized thru-axles with expanding collets at either end. When tightened, these collets expand and lock inside both sides of the swingarm, making the axle a structural part of the swingarm and helping it resist twisting loads far better than conventional pivot axles. As a bonus, LockR axles require no special tools to adjust.

WHAT IT IS:

WHY IT MATTERS:

Unique expanding thru-axles create a super solid connection between swingarm and main frame.

LockR axles reduce flex and play between swingarm and frame to improve responsiveness.

OPI

ONE PIECE INTEGRATION

Cannondaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proprietary 3D forging process allows us to take structures that would ordinarily consist of multiple pieces that would be bolted, bonded, welded or otherwise joined together and turn them into single-piece forged parts. A single block of aluminium is run through a series of different forging steps that can shape the material into complex forms, which are then machined into the final shape. By forging the pieces from a single block of aluminium, we end up with exceptionally good grain alignment, which makes the parts stronger, and we eliminate excess, overlapping or redundant material, which makes them lighter. This technology makes parts like the Lefty OPI outer tube/clamp structure, the Lefty OPI inner leg/axle, the HollowGram Si cranks and the SpideRing chainrings possible.

WHAT IT IS:

WHY IT MATTERS:

A process to forge complex parts from a single block of aluminium.

It creates lighter, stiffer and stronger aluminium parts. CANNONDALE TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION | 9

BALLISTEC™

CANNONDALE’S PROPRIETARY CARBON CONSTRUCTION

WHAT IT IS: BallisTec is Cannondale's proprietary method of high-strength, high-stiffness carbon construction.

WHY IT MATTERS: It allows us to tightly control frame stiffness and strength, so we can push the boundaries of light weight and ride-feel with total confidence (and lifetime warranties.)

‘IT IS FITTING THAT THE MATERIALS USED TO MANUFACTURE THE FRAME ARE THE SAME AS USED IN BALLISTIC ARMOURING. THIS BIKE IS A WEAPON.’ - CYCLING WEEKLY

BallisTec is Cannondale's proprietary method of high-strength, high-stiffness carbon construction. It is the ideal blend of the most advanced materials in the world combined with the most advanced carbon engineering and design. The results speak for themselves. In mountain bikes, it lets us build exceptionally strong, light bikes like the Scalpel-Si, F-Si, and Habit. On the road, it enables us to push the boundaries of light weight while tightly controlling the frame's overall stiffness and ride feel on bikes like the new SuperSix EVO, new SuperX and Synapse. It starts with a base structure composed of ultra-strong fibres like those used for military ballistic armoring, and high-strength, high-impact resins similar to what is used in the construction of carbon baseball bats; light, stiff and designed to endure thousands of deformation cycles. We combine these fibres and this resin in a lay-up designed to maximize the anisotropic (direction-specific) qualities of the fibres in a carbon structure that is extremely light, extremely stiff and capable of withstanding high loads without damage or loss of structural integrity. This enables the frames to pass all of our extremely tough destructive and fatigue testing, and ensures that they are up to the rigors of realworld riding. To tune the overall stiffness and ride-feel of the frame, we strategically add the stiffer, but more brittle higher modulus fibres to create an interconnected network of stiffening fibres throughout the frame. This allows us to precisely tune in different amounts of stiffness and deflection at different points throughout the frame, creating an unbelievably balanced and nuanced ride.

BALLISTEC CARBON CONSTRUCTION COMES IN TWO VERSIONS BALLISTEC HI-MOD BallisTec at its best. Both versions share the same ultra strong base structure, but the Hi-MOD version uses a a sophisticated mix of high and ultra-high modulus fibers to create the stiffening network. Due to their extreme rigidity, we can gain tremendous stiffness with less material, which keeps the overall structure weight to a minimum. The Hi-MOD fibers also deliver a communicative, lively ride-feel that keeps riders more connected with the road surface, letting them push the limits with greater control. BALLISTEC CARBON This version shares the same structure, lay-up and shapes as the Hi-MOD versions but the stiffness and ride feel are dialed in with multiple layers of intermediate-modulus fibers, rather than the more expensive high modulus fibers. This additional material adds a slight amount of weight but delivers similar stiffness and deflection as the Hi-MOD versions, and enables us to offer BallisTec technology to more riders.

CAAD

CANNONDALE ADVANCED ALUMINIUM DESIGN CAAD stands for Cannondale Advanced Aluminium Design. It’s the umbrella under which all Cannondale aluminium technology sits, as well as the name of some of our coolest products, like CAAD12, Fat CAAD and CAADX. The name has lot of history, and has become synonymous with high performance aluminium. Fitting for the brand that pioneered high-performance aluminium bicycles in the first place.

FLOW MODELLING WHAT IT IS: A revolutionary method of bicycle design developed by Cannondale engineers, combining their insight and experience with the interactive horsepower of big computing.

WHY IT MATTERS: Allows engineers to quickly create and test hundreds of virtual tube profiles to determine the optimal shape for each frame tube.

‘CANNONDALE HAS PRODUCED AN ALUMINIUM BIKE THAT IS LIGHTER THAN A KEY COMPETITOR’S CARBON BIKE – IMPRESSIVE ENGINEERING INDEED.’ - CYCLING WEEKLY

In 2014, Cannondale engineers developed an innovative system and methodology for designing bike frames that has revolutionized the entyre product creation process. It began with a relatively simple, yet brilliant idea that fundamentally turned the design process on its head. Rather than starting with a tube shape in mind and simply modifying its dimensions to fill our need, our engineers begin by identifying the all the real needs the tube must fulfill, and defining them digitally. Once those needs are defined, specially created CAD software is unleashed to create the tube that most efficiently fulfills those needs. The highly sophisticated software allows us to virtually create and test hundreds of different iterations of designs quickly and efficiently to determine the optimum configurations, improving areas otherwise overlooked by traditional design methods and unlocking the true hidden performance potential of the material. The results are incredibly efficient use of materials and organic, flowing tube shapes - free of crimps, indents or awkward transitions that affect strength or stiffness. The stunning new CAAD12, with its fluid lines, ultra-light brazed disc mounts (patent-pending) and unmatchable aluminium performance, is a direct product of this new Flow Modeling system.

SMARTFORM ALLOY CONSTRUCTION™ WHAT IT IS: The most advanced aluminium frame construction on the planet.

WHY IT MATTERS: SmartForm construction allows Cannondale to make the lightest, best riding aluminium frames on the market.

SMARTFORM C1 PREMIUM: Our most obsessively advanced alloy contruction, for when every last gram matters. All the metal forming and welding tricks of our C1 construction, but made with 6069 aluminium alloy, rather than 6061. With higher tensile strength and better elongation, 6069 is more expensive and harder to work with than 6061, but with it we can use less material for lighter weight while retaining exceptional stiffness and strength. SMARTFORM C1: Intensively engineered aluminium construction. C1 uses every technique in our arsenal to eliminate excess material and create truly Optimised tube shapes. Hydroforming, swaging, mechancial shaping, forging, ultra refined taper butting and full double-pass smooth welds throughout all combine to create

By pairing three decades of accumulated aluminium construction experience with the advanced design capabilities of our Flow Modeling Process, SmartForm techniques deliver incredibly precise wall thickness distribution and tube shapes, concentrating material exactly where needed to maximize stiffness and strength, while shaving every last extraneous gram from the structure. Internally, all butting is accomplished via smooth, tapered transitions to eliminate the abrupt changes in material thickness which cause stress-risers. Unlike the putty-and-paint “smooth” welds of our competition, Cannondale’s legendary double-pass smooth welds create the strongest possible joints. Combined with our post-weld, heat-treat process that creates an true one-piece finished structure, and you’ve got simply the most advanced aluminium frames available anywhere.

frames that are incredibly light and extremely stiff, with a ride-feel that could only come from Cannondale. SMARTFORM C2: Not every frame can be C1. It's simply too costly and labor intensive but, make no mistake, that passion for high-performance aluminium carries throughout our line. Our SmartForm C2 frames feature many of the sophisticated framebuilding techniques found on the unmatchable C1 frames. Refined butting, precisely controlled tube shapes and our exceptional double-pass welds combine to create frames that others would be proud to call their best. World class weights, great stiffness and that unmistakeable Cannondale ride-feel combine to deliver an incredible performance value.

SMARTFORM C3: C3 is where our performance obsession meets common-sense value. SmartForm C3 frames use the same 6061 aluminium alloy, and the same techniques as the rest of the SmartForm line but are rendered in a manner that makes them less costly. Less aggressive butting, less radical tube-shaping and our smooth welds only in areas where it's vital for strength and beauty. Even though it's our entry-level construction, it's true Cannondale Advanced Aluminium Design and nicer than anything else in its class.

SAVE

MICRO-SUSPENSION TECHNOLOGY™

WHAT IT IS: Areas in the frame, fork or seatpost that are engineered to flex to absorb shock and vibration.

WHY IT MATTERS: SAVE improves rider comfort, handling and control.

CARBON LAYUP: FINE-TO-SMALL BUMPS The Synapse’s carbon layup was designed to maximize something called “inter-laminar shear dissapation”. Basically this means that the ﬁbers are oriented in such a way that vibrations get caught up in the layers and are diffused before they can make it to rider. This helps tune out that energy-sapping road buzz and keeps you fresher.

SAVE technology is all about reducing road shock and vibration By pairing precise tube shapes with sophisticated carbon layup or highly manipulated aluminium, we are able to create areas on the rear chainstays and seat stays, fork or seatpost that can deflect to absorb shock, while staying completely rigid laterally and torsionally. The enhanced vertical compliance provided by these combined features greatly improves comfort and performance. Originally featured on the first Synapse Carbon (It started as an acronym for Synapse Active Vibration Elimination), SAVE Micro-Suspension Technology has evolved into the following four variations for different types of bikes and riding: SAVE PLUS, SPEED SAVE, AERO SAVE and SAVE.

REAR TRIANGLE AND FORK: SMALL TO MEDIUM BUMPS Much like with SPEED SAVE, in SAVE PLUS the rear triangle and fork are designed to work together as a system, allowing the wheels to track the ground whether the rider is seated or standing. The seat stays feature a unique helixed shape, that both bends and compresses under load like a spring, while the fork has a curved shape and offset dropouts that enable it to offer balanced vertical compliance with excellent steering precision.

SEAT POST AND SEAT TUBE: MEDIUM TO LARGE BUMPS The smaller diameter 25.4mm round seatpost offers more compliance than larger diameter posts, an effect which is amplified by the collarless, wedge style seat clamp design. Without a seat collar extending above the top tube, more of the seatpost is exposed and able to flex and absorb shock. The seatpost is complimented by a seat tube that, due to its carbon layup and scalloped, flattened design, is able to bow in concert with the seatpost, maximizing comfort when the rider is seated. Found on the Synapse Hi-MOD and Synapse Carbon.

SMARTFORM ALLOY CONSTRUCTION™ SMOOTHER, MORE COMPLIANT SAVE FEATURES FOR ROUGHER ROADS AND LONGER DAYS. An updated version of the system that started it all, SAVE PLUS offers even more vertical compliance than SPEED SAVE. Perfect for carrying top speed over the cobbles of northern Europe or for smoothing out your next Gran Fondo. The SAVE PLUS system is a radical three-part system designed to handle anything the road can throw your way.

SPEED SAVE™ RACE ORIENTED SAVE FEATURES Much like the suspension on F1 cars, SPEED SAVE features are engineered to help the bike roll faster, not simply to make it more comfortable. Emphasizing light weight and torsional rigidity, SPEED SAVE delivers improved rolling speed, better acceleration, and dramatically improved cornering speed without negatively affecting power transfer. SPEED SAVE works primarily via the balance between rear triangle and the fork. On the rear triangle, both the chainstays and the seatstays are able to flex slightly vertically to absorb shock, while up front, the fork’s offset dropouts and lay-up allow it to have a matched amount of deflection. This creates a true micro-suspension system that allows the wheels to track over imperfect surfaces, whether the rider is seated or standing. This provides better traction and handling, higher speeds and faster cornering. The second part of the system concentrates on rider comfort. The seat tube features a directionally Optimised carbon layup which allows it to deflect slightly fore and aft, which diffuses vibration and impacts and reduces the energy-sapping muscle micro-trauma caused by long days in the saddle. Found on the SuperSix EVO and CAAD12, F-Si.

SAVE™ SAVE FEATURES FOR EVERYDAY RIDING Simpliﬁed SAVE technology engineered for our alloy bikes. Whether hitting a pot hole, dodging obstacles on city streets or chasing the ﬁeld in a crit, SAVE features are designed to remove the harshness, protect you from energy-sapping vibration and improve ride comfort. Found on the CAAD Optimo, Synapse Alloy, Trail and Quick bikes. CANNONDALE TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION | 15

CRANKSETS Ever since we created the first HollowGram crank along with the original BB30 bottom bracket, our cranksets have been a crucial element in our System Integration philosophy. Not only do they set the benchmark for weight and stiffness in each class, but the fact that we make our own cranks and chainrings really frees our engineers up to develop innovative performance solutions without worrying about the constraints of common standards. Advantages like the short chainstays of our Ai rear triangles, or the narrow Q factor of our Fat Bikes are only possible when you design your frames and cranks together as a system. All cranks are BB30, of course, and all feature the same interchangeable spider interface to allow you to quickly and easily change chainrings to suit your preference.

WHAT IT IS:

WHY IT MATTERS:

System Integrated cranksets that set the industry standard for light weight and stiffness.

Lighter, stiffer cranks are more efficient, and making our own cranks and spiders allows us to create System Integrated solutions like Ai or our Fat Bike offset for better performance.

BB30 / BB30A Back in 2000, Cannondale revolutionized bottom bracket technology by oversizing the bottom bracket shell and replacing the heavy, flexy steel BB spindle with a 30mm aluminium spindle with a unique, stressreducing wave-taper crank interface. The result was BB30, a system that is not only significantly lighter, but also significantly stiffer than traditional designs. We released the design as a free industry standard and the rest, as they say, is history. BB30 is now available in many different spindle widths and and configurations to fit different designs but the 30 mm spindle and wave-taper crank interface remain the same. An example of this is the new BB30A found on the Synapse. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;? stands for Asymmetric - the BB30A adds 5mm to the non-drive side of the BB shell for a wider, stiffer base. To accomodate the wider BB shell, the BB30A gets a longer spindle and the nondrive side crankarm angle is changed to maintain the same Q factor and even out ankle clearance on both sides. Cannondale Hollowgram BB30A cranks will work on both BB30 (68mm BB width) and BB30A (73mm bb width) by changing the non-drive side spacers.

30mm

WHAT IT IS:

WHY IT MATTERS:

A revolutionary bottom bracket technology, invented by Cannondale and adopted industry-wide.

It creates lighter, stiffer cranks and bottom brackets for greater pedaling efficiency.

LEFTY OWN YOUR LINE

When it comes to cornering precision and pinpoint control, Leftys simply stand alone. Their wild dual-crown, single leg design delivers burly stiffness that dual-legged forks just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t match, and their smooth-rolling needle bearing internals keeps the suspension moving fluidly, even under loads that cause other forks to bind. And they do it all while being some of the lightest forks on the planet. It all adds up to a front suspension system that will help you stick any line, in any terrain. No flex, no binding, just pure point-and-shoot bliss. So check your pre-conceived notions at the door and step up to a new level of performance, on a Lefty.

CAAD12

JOIN THE ALUMINATI WHO BETTER THAN CANNONDALE TO REINVENT ALUMINIUM AS A HIGH-PERFORMANCE MATERIAL FOR THE 21ST CENTURY ROAD BIKE?

The iconic Cannondale Advanced Aluminium Design title has been our calling card for a once sought after and now totally revived material. Aluminium is the fabric with which we made our name, sending shock waves through the peloton by collecting Grand Tour stage wins seemingly for fun in the 1990s. Now, we’ve raised the game again with CAAD12, the world’s most sophisticated aluminium bicycle frame, delivering weight and stiffness statistics that would shame many ‘premium’ carbon frames. How have we done it? By deploying a cutting-edge manufacturing process that we call SmartForm. On-screen Flow Modelling helps us to optimise the distribution of the material to determine wall thickness and tube shapes with incredible precision. Internally, the same techniques are used to take butting to a new level of sophistication. For CAAD12, we use our top-tier 6069 aluminium. The Delta seat tube flares to a large ovalised section at its junction with the BB30A bottom bracket shell, another proprietary technology that helps to deliver superior pedaling stability and greater power transfer. The Speed Save rear triangle is the result of sculpted and flattened chainstays that flex to absorb shock. The minimalist flat-mount disc mounts are patent pending. Add to the equation a continuous carbon Speed Save fork, made in a one-piece construction from our BallisTec carbon, for the rim brake model, or our proven full carbon disc fork, and it’s clear why the CAAD12 is the choice of the insider: the privateer racer who knows from experience what works and what doesn’t, and how special CAAD frames have always been. Discover for yourself what the cognoscenti already know: that sophisticated aluminium beats ordinary carbon hands down. Ride the CAAD12 today and join the Aluminati.

CAAD OPTIMO WHERE PERFORMANCE BEGINS

A BRAND NEW START OR THE WINTER MACHINE THAT PERFORMS LIKE YOUR BEST BIKE? YOU DECIDE. The CAAD Optimo has all bases covered, via a sophisticated SmartForm aluminium chassis, impeccable geometry, integrated mudguard mounts and disc brakes. Let’s begin at the beginning, or, more precisely, with the beginner. Taking your first steps with any new venture is at once exciting and daunting. What if you could remove the trepidation and distil that new experience into one of pure excitement? Well, now you can. The CAAD Optimo is the sort of bike that even the most experienced riders will gaze upon with envy, perhaps mentally allocating a spare corner of the garage for a back-up machine to a SuperSix EVO or CAAD12. Of course, CAAD12 is the obvious reference. The CAAD Optimo is its junior sibling, after all, with an identical geometry and many shared features, including a tapered headtube for the precise steering that results from extra stiffness at the front end of the bike. Where the CAAD12 showcases our premium SmartForm C1 aluminium, the Optimo channels the same profiles and angles into our SmartForm C2 tubing, a mechanical algorithm whose output equates to an unrivaled ratio of bang for buck. A host of other features complete the picture: disc brakes with cables internally routed, a micro-suspension system engineered into the seat stays and chain stays and our ultra-compliant 25.4 seatpost for harsh commutes or long winter days in the saddle. Introducing the CAAD Optimo – optimised for you, whatever your riding.

‘CANNONDALE’S NEW ENTRY LEVEL OPTIMO BORROWS PLENTY OF TECH FROM THE AWARD WINNING CAAD12.’ - BIKE RADAR ‘THE CAAD OPTIMO IS DERIVED FROM THE CAAD12 AND HAS THE SAME GEOMETRY AND THE SAME HIGHLY REGARDED RIDE QUALITY WITH A MORE AFFORDABLE PRICE.’ - ROADBIKEREVIEW.COM

2017 CAAD OPTIMO: CAAD Optimo is CAAD12’s overachieving little brother. With trickle-down tech and identical geometry, it makes a killer ﬁrst performance road bike, or great training/backup bike for EVO/ CAAD12 owners.

KEY CAAD OPTIMO FEATURES: »» EXCEPTIONAL ALUMINIUM PERFORMANCE SmartForm C2 Aluminium construction is lighter and has a better ride-feel than many of our competitors’ premium alloy offerings. »» ELITE RACE GEOMETRY With exactly the same geometry as the CAAD12 and SuperSix EVO, CAAD Optimo offers riders true race handling and body position. »» RIDE SMOOTHER WITH SAVE Flex zones in the rear triangle and fork absorb shock for better comfort and control. »» BETTER STOPPING MEANS FASTER GOING CAAD Optimo Disc frames were designed specifically around the advantages of disc brakes. With better modulation and control, discs don’t just offer more stopping power, they offer BETTER stopping power.

ENDURANCE RACE RACE-LEVEL PERFORMANCE MEETS ALL-DAY COMFORT IN A PACKAGE THATâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S PERFECT FOR GRAN FONDOS, CYCLOSPORTIVES AND LONG DAYS IN THE SADDLE.

SYNAPSE CARBON SYNAPSE ALLOY

SYNAPSECARBON CRUSH MEETS PLUSH

WHEN COMFORT IS CRITICAL, BUT PERFORMANCE IS NON-NEGOTIABLE, WHERE DO YOU TURN? TO THE CANNONDALE SYNAPSE, OF COURSE. The brutal, early season engagements of professional cycling’s Spring Classics present a savage test of endurance and speed, but the Synapse has proved itself more than equal to the challenges of cobbles, mud, and vicious ramps. Of equal importance to the consumer are the countless Bike of the Year awards the Synapse has won from a salivating media. The writer-riders tasked with testing almost every new bike consistently have showered it with praise. A sample? “One of the best all-round machines ever created,” according to Bike Radar. Who are we to argue? We’re not content to rest on laurels, however. The 2017 Synapse has bolt-thru axles and flat mount technology for disc brakes; the best third-party technology to sit alongside our own innovations. From the helix-profiled stays and fork with SAVE Plus micro suspension to the Power Pyramid split seat-tube, an asymmetric distribution of material around the bottom bracket to gain maximum stiffness from minimum weight, we’ve made the Synapse a technical showcase. All of the many innovations present on the Synapse serve a single purpose: to create the perfect blend of speed and comfort. Uniting such seemingly opposed poles ain’t easy, but we’ve done it with every iteration of this defiantly brilliant bike. The 2017 edition pushes the envelope further. Perhaps the best example is the S.E.R.G geometry, a carefully calculated, obsessively tested combination of measurements and angles that deliver a longer wheelbase and a headtube stack height between 2cm and 2.5cm taller than our Elite Race geometry, is the best example. Who says you can’t have all-day comfort and raw speed? The Cannondale Synapse. Where crush meets plush.

“NOT ONLY DID THE SYNAPSE WIN THE OVERALL AWARD, IT WALKED OFF WITH THE BEST SPORTIVE BIKE TOO, PROVING JUST HOW GOOD IT WAS. IT SETS THE BENCHMARK HIGH.” - ROAD.CC “CLOSER TO BEING THE IDEAL ‘DO-IT-ALL’ BIKE THAN ANYTHING I’VE RIDDEN BEFORE...” - CYCLIST

2017 SYNAPSE CARBON: The perfect balance of race-day performance and all-day ridability.

KEY SYNAPSE CARBON FEATURES: »» THE RIGHT POSITION S.E.R.G. Synape Endurance Race Geometry puts you in a riding position that balances race-efficiency and handling with upright comfort. Perfect for long days in the saddle and confident handling on all road surfaces. »» SMOOTH SPEED From the cobbles to the canyons, the SAVE PLUS Micro-Suspension System keeps you comfortable and in control with bump-eating flex zones in the frame, fork and seatpost. »» RACE-LEVEL STIFFNESS,RACE-LEVEL WEIGHT BallisTec Carbon Construction, System Integrated cranksets, Power Pyramid Seat Tube and oversized BB30a bottom bracket shell all come together to deliver a bike that’s sprinter-stiff and climber-light.

WHO SAYS YOU CAN’T HAVE IT ALL? THE SYNAPSE ALLOY DELIVERS COMFORT, PERFORMANCE, VERSATILITY AND VALUE IN AN AFFORDABLE AND DESIRABLE PACKAGE. WHAT’S NOT TO LIKE? Inspired by the Synapse Carbon, the sophisticated endurance bike raced by Cannondale Pro Cycling in professional cycling’s brutal Spring Classics and winner of three Bike Of The Year Awards, the Synapse Alloy combines speed with comfort, technology with value, and versatility with a clear identity. The SmartForm Alloy C2 chassis sets the tone by placing a lightweight frame, incorporating Cannondales decades of aluminium knowhow, at the centre of affairs, paired with a carbon-bladed fork for steering that responds immediately and unerringly to your inputs.

NEW ROAD THE WHERE-EVER, WHEN-EVER, WHY-EVER, ON-ROAD, OFF-ROAD, FLAT-OUT RIPPER.

SLATE

FUN IS THE ONLY MISSION CLOSE YOUR EYES AND PICTURE THE PROTOTYPICAL CANNONDALE BIKE.

Perhaps the perfect representation of Cannondale’s maverick spirit lives and breathes in the Slate. Hugely oversized aluminium tubes, a lefty suspension fork and 650B wheels but all on a bike with drop bars is curve ball bike like no other. When fun is the only mission, and enjoyment your only objective, look no further than the Slate, a bike so definitively Cannondale that we might have left off the decals. The Lefty is one of our most iconic designs and the Slate has its own iteration: the Lefty Oliver, a single-sided fork that delivers 30mm of bob-free travel, with no compromise to the pinpoint handling you’d expect of a thoroughbred road bike. Innovation isn’t confined to the front of the Slate. Head to the back and you’ll find a carefully calculated rear triangle with chain stays and seat stays dramatically shaped to absorb shock and vibration. The result? Enhanced comfort and control. Look closer still and you’ll see the Syntace 142x12 thru-axle and patent-pending, braze-on disc mount. The combination of smaller, 650b wheels and balloon-like 42c tyres is more obvious. These rolling cushions deliver a remarkable balance of speed and comfort and another example of our instinct to question everything and accept nothing. A road bike has 700c wheels, right? Not this one. From its SmartForm aluminium chassis to a do-it-all geometry of short chainstays and slack head angle, the Slate is a bike with innovation to burn, but the purest raison d’être: enjoyment. The Cannondale Slate. Fun is the only mission.

‘MASSES OF FUN, GREAT RIDE POSITION AND AWESOME IN THE ROUGH.’ - BIKE RADAR ‘THE SLATE IS ABLE TO EASILY HOP BETWEEN BEING A FAST AND SPRIGHTLY ROAD BIKE, AND AN ENTERTAINING AND SURPRISINGLY CAPABLE OFF-ROAD BIKE.’ - ROAD.CC

2017 SLATE: The Slate brings a whole new dimesion of hard-cornering, curb-hopping, trail-shredding fun to the concept of “road-riding”.

KEY SYNAPSE ALUMINIUM FEATURES: »» BIG TYRES + SMALL WHEELS = GOOD TIMES Massive 42c tyres on 650b wheels give you the the same roll-out diameter as a 700x23c wheel for proper road bike speed, but with unreal cornering grip, traction and comfort. »» “FULL FUN” GEOMETRY Short chainstays give Slate snappy quickness, while a slack head angle and long front-centre keep things stable for off-road excursions. »» MAGIC CARPET COMFORT With the big-volume tyres, plush SAVE PLUS (+) rear triangle, and Lefty Oliver suspension fork, the Slate is magically smooth over bumps and chatter. »» SURPRISINGLY LIGHT, SURPRISINGLY FAST Despite its burly look, Slate weighs less than a kilo more than comparable road bikes and it carries speed like a traditional (but bizarrely smooth) road bike.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES: Smartform C1 Construction, Save Plus (+) Micro-Suspension, Si - System Integration, System Integrated Cranksets, Dropper Post Ready (27.2)

RIDER PROFILE Roadies looking for a new thrill. MTB’ers or action-sports enthusiasts looking for a more open definition of “road riding”. Highly skilled riders looking for new limits to push. Highly unskilled riders looking to build skills without consequences.

SUPERX CAADX

SUPERX

THE NEW BOSS OF ‘CROSS WE’VE CHANGED THE GAME SO OFTEN IT’S BECOME A HABIT. NOW THE SUPERX REDEFINES THE CYCLO-CROSS BIKE IN A WAY FAMILIAR TO OWNERS OF OUR SINGLE-SIDED LEFTY FORK OR APTLY-NAMED HOLLOWGRAM CRANKS. How? The SuperX uses our philosophy of Asymmetric Integration (Ai), a clever-simple solution that pushes the drivetrain outboard by 6mm providing shorter chainstays for better climbing and acceleration whilst achieving a stiffer, stronger rear wheel. There’s more. The SuperX also includes our OutFront geometry for optimised steering, a clever geometric balance that combines a slack head angle with longer-than-normal fork rake and reduced trail. The result? Greater agility with the same bet-your-life stability. Headline developments are only part of the SuperX story, however. The details are equally rewarding. A super stiff, ultra light BallisTec carbon chassis, bolt-thru axles front and rear for unparalleled lateral stiffness, and clearance for 40mm tyres make this a bike limited only by your ambition. Granted, the SuperX is a thoroughbred racer, purpose built to deliver results on today’s unrelenting ‘cross courses, but that same instinct for speed, unmatchable traction, and explosive sprinting make this a machine to be enjoyed everywhere.

‘THE ALL NEW SUPERX THOROUGHLY IMPRESSES NOT ONLY IN TERMS OF HANDLING BUT ALSO VERSATILITY.’ - CX MAGAZINE ‘CANNONDALE IS ATTEMPTING TO REINVENT ‘CROSS GEOMETRY, AND IN THE PROCESS MAY HAVE JUST CREATED THE PERFECT GRAVEL BIKE AS WELL.’ - PELOTON MAGAZINE

2017 SUPERX: The ultimate ‘Cross race machine, the all-new SuperX delivers the two things a today’s cross racer needs most, stability and traction, better than anything else on the market. The ultralight weight, stiffness and smooth ride are just icing on the cake.

KEY SUPERX FEATURES: »» INSANE TRACTION—WITHOUT COMPROMISE Proprietary Ai offset drivetrain delivers super short chainstays for climb-winning traction and agile handling, with huge clearance for tyres and mud. »» “BEST OF BOTH” HANDLING OutFront steering geometry offers stability for technical descents but maintains agility everywhere else. Just what you need for today’s ‘cross courses. »» FEATHER LIGHT. ULTRA STIFF BallisTec Carbon Construction, System Integrated cranksets, and Ai even-dish rear wheels deliver chart topping stiffness and incredibly light weight. Wicked to sprint, easy to shoulder. »» MASSIVE CLEARANCE The clearance offered by the Ai rear end means you can run up to 40c tyres, or pit less than the other guys in muddy conditions. »» SMOOTH AS A BELGIAN BEER Redesigned SPEED SAVE features in the rear triangle and fork lets you track through the rough stuff and keep the power down on climbs.

CAADX

CROSS FUNCTIONAL

WHERE ULTIMATE VERSATILITY MEETS SUPREME VALUE, THIS IS THE ONE BIKE CAPABLE OF EVERYTHING AND AFFORDABLE BY EVERYONE. INTRODUCING THE NEW CAADX. With the same geometry as its SuperX big brother and features inspired by the beautifully engineered CAAD12, this is a machine that offers a whole lot of bang per buck. Its SmartForm C2 chassis is constructed using the computer-controlled TubeFlow modelling that was pioneered with the Award Winning CAAD12, a construction technique so advanced it has raised the bar in aluminium construction by creating a lighter, stronger and more robust chassis. Additionally, the CAADX is designed around the same cutting edge OutFront geometry as the SuperX, a carefully considered collection of tube lengths angles that delivers traction, grip, acceleration and nimble handling in abundance, making it as adept at avoiding potholes as pinning a line on the most challenging ‘cross course. Your only bike? Versatility is in the DNA of a ‘cross machine, but we’ve upped the ante in subtle style with mudguard mounts concealed in the fork blades and a removable mount for the rear stays. Tyre clearance is the ultimate point of crossover for bikes intended to be ridden on road and off, and the CAADX’s generous proportions allow it to accommodate a 35c tyres with ease, leaving you free to smoke trails and soak up the worst the city streets can offer without fear of punctures or rim damage. Smart, sleek and packed with features from SAVE micro-suspension at the rear to a tapered headtube for pinpoint steering up front, the CAADX is a bike that offers speed, versatility and good times aplenty, without compromise. What are you waiting for?

TOURING

TOURING LOAD UP. BREAK OUT

A TASTE OF ADVENTURE. A CHANCE OF ESCAPE. A ROAD OUT OF THE DAILY GRIND INTO AN EVER-CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF WONDER AND ADVENTURE. WELCOME TO TOURING, CANNONDALE STYLE. What if the most innovative brand you know set its finest minds the task of updating the most traditional style of bike? Then you’d have our new Touring range for 2017. A “fast touring” geometry that hits the sweet spot between speed and comfort? Check. A broad range of gears for the wide-ranging terrain you’ve planned for your next adventure? Check. Smaller 650b wheels for the smaller frames? Check. Unexpectedly light aluminium frames, created with our sophisticated, computer-controlled SmartForm C2 construction? Check. You’ll excuse our confidence. The first bike Cannondale produced was a Touring bike. We didn’t know then that we were unleashing a revolution, but having won world championships and Grand Tours, we’ve learned never again to underestimate the power of aluminium. The Touring range, of course, has different goals to the bikes we send to the Tour de France - comfort, stability, the versatility to support rack and mudguard mounts, clearance for 40c tyres – but is designed with the same obsessive attention to detail It’s why we’ve flared the handlebars for stability, why we’ve paired the compact 50/34 chainset with wide-ratio gears, and why we’ve created a geometry that places the rider in a more upright position for comfort and the best view of the road ahead - because when you’re riding a model from our new Touring range, you won’t want to miss a thing.

XC RACE ULTRA LIGHT, RACE-ORIENTED MACHINES FOR RIDERS SEEKING THE ULTIMATE IN EFFICIENCY AND SPEED.

SCALPEL-Si F-Si

SCALPEL-Si BUILT FOR XXC

STRIKING THE PERFECT BALANCE OF SPEED, TRACTION AND HANDLING IS XC RACING’S ORIGINAL CHALLENGE. THE NEW SCALPEL-SI IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION. It’s a defiantly modern XC machine that embraces trail inspired geometry, as XC courses become increasingly more technical. The Scalpel-Si’s frame is made from Cannondale’s proprietary BallisTec carbon, a sophisticated layup of military-grade fibres and high-impact resins that offers unparalleled levels of stiffness, smoothness, lightness and ultimate robustness. It’s a chassis composed around Cannondale’s groundbreaking OutFront geometry, a skillful rebalancing of the factors that effect steering to strike the sweet spot that lies between agility and stability. Asymmetric Integration (Ai) delivers shorter chainstays and greater traction. By moving the drivetrain 6mm to the right, the rear wheel can be brought closer to the seat tube, without compromise. A matching Ai rear wheel, re-dished by 6mm, but laced with even spoke length, tension and bracing angle, keeps the rim in line with the seat tube, and the cassette in line with the chainrings. Simple. Elegant. Cannondale. The Scalpel-Si bears the closest scrutiny. Close inspection reveals interchangeable cable guide chips at the headtube and a beautifully engineered carbon linkage, stiffened further by proprietary LockR pivot thru-axles. Up front, the the latest generation of the single-sided Lefty fork provides unsurpassed levels of stiffness and precision. Some technology, however, cannot be seen, such as the hidden Di2 battery holder, discretely concealed in the top tube. The Scalpel-Si is the embodiment of Cannondale’s long-held philosophy of System Integration. A matchless performer, with groundbreaking technologies positioned front and centre, it’s the definitive response to XC racing’s oldest challenges.

F-SiCARBON BUILT FOR XXC

FOR MANY, THE XC HARDTAIL REMAINS THE PUREST EXPRESSION OF MOUNTAIN BIKE TECHNOLOGY. THE FS-I CARBON IS THE PUREST OF THE PURE. Beneath its elegant exterior, a supremely stiff BallisTec carbon chassis fashioned from military-grade fibres and high-impact resin, the F-Si Carbon is filled with features, notably Cannondale’s new and proprietary OutFront steering geometry, a delicate geometric balance that combines a longer rake with reduced trail to deliver an intoxicating blend of stability and agility. System Integration has long been part of the Cannondale code, and new Asymmetric Integration (Ai) extends the philosophy into a new frontier for off-road machines, shifting the drivetrain 6mm to the right to free-up a frequently congested rear triangle. The benefit? Shorter chainstays for greater traction. The advantages? Immediate acceleration, enhanced climbing and better handling. The single-sided Lefty fork is a technology so quintessentially Cannondale that there’s little to add. For so long the benchmark, the new generation continues to deliver matchless stiffness and steering precision, low weight and striking looks. It’s an XC fork without equal, combining a filament wound carbon fibre outer leg with dual alloy crowns, and available for 27.5” and 29” wheels – a must for the F-Si, a model that uses the smaller wheel for Small frames, and the larger diameter for frame sizes from Medium to XL. Courses and riding styles change, but the quest for speed remains a constant. The F-Si Carbon is the embodiment of the modern XC hardtail, built with velocity at the top of its agenda. Pure, but refined. Classic, but unmistakably now. And fast. Very, very fast.

F-SiALLOY

WORLD CUP DNA FOR THE REST OF US SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO TRUST YOUR SENSES. RECEIVED WISDOM SAYS THAT A BIKE AS COMPETITIVELY PRICED AS THE F-SI ALLOY CAN’T PERFORM AS WELL AS IT DOES, BUT SEEING (AND RIDING) IS BELIEVING.

The F-Si Alloy is utterly contemporary, an aluminium hardtail as far removed from its predecessors as might be imagined, from the slack head angle, enshrined in Cannondale’s proprietary OutFront geometry on the Lefty-equipped flagship, to the impossibly tight rear triangle present throughout the range, fashioned with a curved seat-tube and short chain stays for blistering acceleration. The SmartForm C1 Alloy frame brings a new level of sophistication to aluminium manufacturing never before seen. Computer-controlled TubeFlow modelling ensures that not even a gram of excess material is expended, and allows chainstays and seat-stays to be sculpted with infinite precision to build in smoothness via the proprietary SAVE micro-suspension system. Further evidence that the F-Si Alloy is a hardtail constructed with uncommon consideration can be found in the fit-focussed wheel selection. The small model is built around the 27.5” platform, while sizes from medium to XL use the 29” standard maximising rider control and comfort. Similar attention to detail can be found in the component selection. The flagship F-Si Al1 uses the aforementioned Lefty fork, while the Al2 and Al3 use the longest fork offsets available to balance high-speed ability with low-speed agility. The FS-i Alloy defies conventional wisdom, but when did Cannondale ever care for rules or opinion? When the evidence of the senses is so compelling, it’s time to trust your own judgment. Seeing is believing, after all.

MOTERRAE-SERIES MOUNTAIN BIKING – SUPERCHARGED

With awesomely agile handling, killer stiffness and ideal weight distribution, the Moterra and Moterra LT not only let you climb like an electron-fueled god — they let you rip, rail and shred like one too. With shortest in class chain stays and lowest centre of gravity, Moterra keeps the front wheel popping and corner roosting ride of a regular trail bike that you’re used to, but adds the power to climb faster and reserve your energy for the next descent. In typical Cannondale style we have machined our own parts to achieve an E-bike that rides this good with custom motor mount, Ai (Asymmetric Integration) offset drivetrain and custom battery mounting system. Powered by Bosch, the most recognised and reliable power source in the E-bike market, Moterra will keep going as long as your lungs and legs can keep up.

2017 MOTERRA E-SERIES: The all-new Moterra sets a new benchmark for eMTB thanks to a perfect centre of gravity, powerful Bosch motor and Cannondale’s radical engineering philosophies.

KEY MOTERRA E-SERIES FEATURES: »» DEDICATED FRAME DESIGN Moterra has been designed around the optimal position for battery and motor, delivering a class-leading, centre of gravity – low and central. »» FAMILIAR GEOMETRY FEEL The Moterra has a geometry tuned for the specific demands of eMTB. With the shortest chainstays on the market and an aggressive, yet stable, riding performance, Moterra rides as well as every bike we design – motorized or conventional. »» SYSTEM INTEGRATION Our philosophy of System Integration delivers maximum performance without compromise. Every component is designed to work together. Unite this with our revolutionary Asymmetric Integration (Ai) drivetrain ethos and the result is a bike without competition. »» BOSCH POWERHOUSE Powered by market-leading Bosch Performance CX motors, Moterra delivers supreme power assist up to 300%. Naturally, this much power requires increased battery capacity, which is why each model is equipped with the maximum 500Wh battery unit, ending range anxiety. It uses 27.5” wheels on size small, with 29” wheels on medium through x-large sizes. »» SPECIFIC EMTB FEATURES Moterra is equipped with important features that are designed specifically for eMTB. Double battery security and protection, custom chain guide and even capacity for a full size water bottle, to name but a few.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES: OutFront Optimized steering geometry. A radical revision to the standard ‘rules’ of bicycle geometry, creating a ‘long front centre’ for superb balance.

RIDER PROFILE Off-road riders looking to rip it up the climbs as fast as they want to blast back down.

JEKYLL ALL-NEW

BUILT FOR ENDURO

JEROME CLEMENTZ TAKES PROTOTYPE TO ENDURO WORLD SERIES PODIUM OVERALL As we put this catalogue together, it’s late 2016 and the all-new Jekyll is currently going through final testing with our athletes – and it’s proving to be a winner. Jerome Clementz has already ridden an early prototype to victorys on the World Enduro stage finishing the EWS series in third place overall. The new Jekyll will be a 165/170mm enduro race bike built around the new metric shock standard, mated to progressive long and slack geometry – with 65 degree head-angle, short stem, wide bars, ‘shortest in class’ rear ends, and Fox forks up front. The Jekyll will be the best enduro mountain bike on the planet – just ask Jerome! The 2017 Jekyll will be launched in Spring 2017, watch for details at cannondale.com The editorial team at Dirt have already said ‘Clearly Cannondale isn’t resting on its haunches with its top-of-the-range enduro bike’.

TRIGGER ALL-NEW

The all-new Cannondale Trigger will feature 145/150mm of all-mountain travel, with a similar shock configuration to our upcoming Jekyll â&#x20AC;&#x201C; featuring fully active suspension in all situations, with a super-efficient pedalling/sprint setting and uncompromising descending ability. The Trigger will be the most versatile all-mountain bike we make, and will feature progressive geometry, shorter chainstays (with huge mud clearance) and a long front-centre, built around Fox forks, a 45mm stem and wide bars. The Triggerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suspension will be characterised by a consistent, predictable feel meaning the shock will feel perfect throughout the whole travel. All-new Trigger. Available in Spring 2017.

HABIT

GET INTO THE HABIT GENRE-BLURRING IS IN THE CANNONDALE DNA. THE HABIT IS A CASE IN POINT. LONG-TRAVEL XC BIKE, OR A SHORT-TRAVEL TRAIL BIKE? ONE TO CONSIDER, PERHAPS, WHEN THE EAR-TO-EAR GRIN HAS FADED.

The Habit is supremely versatile, arguably the one bike to rule them all, blessed with the agility of a hardtail and the capability of a machine with much bigger travel. More importantly, it’s incredible fun to ride – nerve-shredding, pulse-racing, grin-inducing fun. The Habit’s do-it-all persona is enhanced by the breadth of the range, with seven models to choose from, based on full carbon, carbon-alloy and full alloy platforms. All frames benefit from the beautifully engineered carbon linkage. The carbon in question is Cannondale’s proprietary BallisTec, a skilled layup of military-grade fibre and high-impact resin. The alloy is our SmartForm C1; sophisticated pipework that exhibits Cannondale’s full arsenal of forming techniques, from mechanical shaping to ultra-refined taper butting, and finished with our signature double pass smooth welds. The Habit is not all refinement, however. Wide bars, short stem, tough rims and chunky tyres give it a purposeful stance. This is a bike at the cutting edge of trail-inspired design. Half-measures do not apply. The Habit SE is the fullest expression of this “bigger is better” philosophy, equipped with a 130mm travel fork and 2.35” tyres front and rear. The componentry matches a geometry that places an emphasis on rider control: slack angles for confidence, short chain stays for popping manuals, and chassis stiffness to inspire aggressive cornering. The days of fighting the bike while fighting the trail are gone, but be warned – adrenaline is addictive and a rider can soon become trail dependent. Habits are easily acquired, especially this one. Get yours today.

BAD HABIT

BAD HABITS ARE THE MOST FUN

THE GEOMETRY MAY BE RELAXED, BUT THERE’S NOTHING SLACK ABOUT THE BAD HABIT, A 27+ BIKE SO PERFECTLY EQUIPPED FOR MODERN TRAIL RIDING THAT IT MAY JUST BECOME AN ADDICTION. CONSIDER THIS FAIR WARNING. The new range includes a carbon-alloy platform for the first time, uniting a front triangle fashioned from Cannondale’s high-performance BallisTec composite with a similarly high-tech SmartForm C1 alloy swing arm - two very different materials united by proprietary technologies (and a skilfully formed carbon linkage). Bad Habit is designed around OutFront geometry, Cannondale’s rewriting of conventional geometric wisdom. The result? Steering that is simultaneously relaxed and accurate; calm, but pinpoint. Add Ai to the equation. Asymmetric Integration, another Cannondale innovation, shifts the drivetrain 6mm to the right to reclaim valuable real estate in the rear triangle - essential to accommodate 3.0 tyres - while bringing the rear wheel closer to the seat-tube for unrivalled traction. Big must also be strong, and Ai’s zero-dish, symmetrical lacing in the rear wheel, achieved with even spoke lengths and tension, gives much-needed stiffness to 27+. Add a wide 148x12 rear hub to the mix and the result is strength enough to withstand the forces of the most technical trail. Those same forces place an unrelenting demand on the fork, but the single-sided Lefty fitted onto Carbon 1 and Alloy1 is equal to the task. Lefty and its class-leading stiffness is seemingly purpose-built for the new 27+ standard. Some bad habits don’t need correcting. This is one. Packed with technology, from Cannondale Si chainsets to flex-free, low maintenance zero-pivot rear stays, the new Bad Habit is one to pick up immediately.

‘YEP – THE BAD HABIT IS BAD-ASS. THIS THING IS A BLAST!’ - FACTORY JACKSON

2017 BAD HABIT: With Habit’s great handling and the huge grip and roll-overanything float of 27+ tyres, Bad Habit is the ultimate technical trail machine.

KEY BAD HABIT FEATURES: »» BRING ON THE CARBON New for 2017, we’ve added two Carbon models to the Bad Habit family. Featuring lightweight BallisTec carbon main frames, SmartForm C1 swingarms and a sweet, super light carbon link, Bad Habits never looked so good. »» SHORT STAYS, SWEET PERFORMANCE. Super short chainstays for awesomely nimble handling, and tons of clearance for full 3.0 tyres, thanks to our Ai offset drivetrain. »» STIFFER, STRONGER REAR WHEEL Wide 148x12 rear hubs with Ai symmetrical spoke angles and tension, give Bad Habit the stiffest, strongest rear wheels going. »» SWEET STEERING OutFront Steering Geometry is perfect for 27+. Slack stability lets you hang it out on the descents, while the Lefty’s long fork offset keeps the steering quick and light at slow speeds. »» FORKIN STIFF The unreal traction of 27+ tyres puts unreal forces on your fork. Nothing stands up to it like Lefty. Precise steering, flex-free handling and smooth suspension even under the most brutal loads.

BEASTOF THEEAST UNLEASH THE BEAST

IN A COMPLICATED WORLD, THE JOY OF THE TRAIL IS SOMETHING PURE. THE BEAST OF THE EAST IS THE 27+ HARDTAIL THAT PLACES CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGIES AT THE SERVICE OF SIMPLE PLEASURE. YOURS. Big wheels, short stays. Wide bars, short stem. Grippy tyres, smooth rolling. The Beast of the East is a glorious contradiction, where proprietary technologies like Asymmetric Integration (Ai) and OutFront geometry come together in a bike built entirely for fun. A frame made from SmartForm C1 alloy sets the agenda. All of Cannondale’s proud heritage with aluminium is found here, brilliantly updated with the proprietary, computer-controlled Tube Flow modelling process. The result is an aluminium chassis that outperforms any of its budget competitors. Cannondale’s proprietary OutFront geometry places stability front and centre. How? By combining a long fork offset with reduced trail, and a slack head angle with a ‘long front centre’ between bottom bracket centre and front axle. Rules rewritten. Again. Asymmetric Integration delivers another shot of clever-simple innovation. Ai moves the drivetrain outboard, shifting it 6mm to the right, reclaiming space in the rear triangle to accommodate the Beast’s 3.0” tyres and defiantly short chainstays, delivering exceptional grip and traction. Ai doesn’t end with the drivetrain. To keep cassette sprockets in line with the cranks, Cannondale has created a zero dished rear wheel, with symmetrical spoke lengths and even spoke tension. Add a 142x12 rear hub to complete the picture. Dropper post ready, and equipped with Cannondale Si cranks, the Beast of the East is every inch the modern trail machine. Its huge rolling stock tells only part of the story. Classic lines and proprietary technology come together to maximise the simple pleasure of trail riding. Beast-ing the trail has never been so satisfying.

Trail embodies all of these desirable qualities. t’s a bike ready for anything, from XC racing to the sheer joy of trail riding, built around a lightweight, alloy frame and the 27.5 wheel standard, offering a perfect balance of speed and agility. Not all entry-level bikes are created equal. The Trail’s chassis is fashioned from our sophisticated SmartForm C2 aluminium, making it the lightest in a competitive class. Smoothness is equally important for riders new to the rigours of the trail, and Cannondale’s proprietary SAVE technology in the rear triangle - careful shaping of the chainstays and seat stays to build-in deflection - provides added security. A focus on stability continues in the Trail’s geometry, with frame angles specifically chosen to inspire confidence, embracing speed and confidence; traction and predictable steering. Generosity is another attractive quality and the Trail is generously specced, with WTB tyres, Cannondale C-Series cockpits and hydraulic disc brakes throughout the range. Love can be a conflict between the head and the heart, but the Trail lets both hold sway. Rational thought or reckless passion will lead you to the same conclusion – that the Trail is the ideal partner for your new affair with cycling.

FAT BIKE FULL-TRACTION, MULTI-TERRAIN ADVENTURE MACHINES.

FAT CAAD

FAT CAAD FAT AND FAST

LIFE IS A SERIES OF CHOICES, BUT IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE COMPROMISE WASN’T NECESSARY. The Fat CAAD combines impossible traction with lightweight agility, making such a radical machine a sensible choice for trail riding in almost any conditions. Lightness and honed geometry hold the key to agility and the Fat CAAD’s exceptional handling is a direct result of a seriously sophisticated chassis. Made from our SmartForm C1 tubes, aluminum treated with the most advanced forming techniques, the Fat CAAD shares a DNA with some of Cannondale’s fastest road machines. The OutFront geometry is defiantly new school: long, low and slack. The Fat CAAD’s relaxed head angle and long front centre deliver stability, while the short chainstays, carefully shaped to create SAVE micro-suspension zones, offer traction that other fat bikes simply can’t match. Tyres this large hadn’t been thought of when Lefty suspension was born, but fat bikes are another application for which it’s class-leading stiffness is perfect. There’s a ‘fat’ specific model, too – the Lefty Olaf, with a 100mm travel and 60mm offset - to control the monstrous 4.8” tyre contact patch. And now for the secret weapon. Cannondale’s core philosophy of System Integration reduces the Fat CAAD’s Q-factor by 2.5cm. How? With integrated Si cranks and offset chainrings. The result? A fat bike that feels like a bike, not a horse. It’s 2x compatible too. If you’re tired of forced decisions and unnecessary compromises, the Fat CAAD might be the trail weapon for you. Seemingly the least likely candidate for the ‘one bike to rule them all’ award, the Fat CAAD’s unique blend of agility and traction might just make it the most versatile machine in your collection.

‘WITH THE FAT CAAD 1, CANNONDALE HAVE SUCCEEDED IN BRINGING SOMETHING RADICALLY NEW TO THE FAT BIKE MARKET. THE LEFTY FORK IS A GENUINE PLEASURE TO USE AND NOTICABLY IMPROVES RIDE COMFORT OFF ROAD. IT LOOKS COOL AS HELL TOO!’ - SINGLETRACK

2017 FAT CAAD: Cannondale’s aluminium wizardry and System Integration create a fat bike with the heart and soul of a racer.

KEY FAT CAAD: »» STEERING YOU RIGHT OutFront steering geometry lets you get the most out of that big, fat contact patch. Slack head angle and long front center lets you get rowdy on the steeps, while the tight trail measurement keeps things crazy-nimble at slow speeds. »» CONTROL THE FAT Don’t fight the fat - control it! The Lefty Olaf is the only suspension fork with the stiffness to tell that big tyre what to do. »» KEEP IT TIGHT Fat CAAD’s System Integrated cranksets feature an custom Fat chainring offset to offer the best balance of short stays, tight Q-factor and 2x compatibility, with full 4.8” tyres. »» KILLER Q-FACTOR Thanks to our System Integrated cranks and offset chainrings, the FAT CAAD’s Q-factor is up to 2.5cm narrower than the competition, so it feels like riding a bike, not a horse.

URBAN THE PACE OF THE CITY IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. SURROUNDED BY CONSTANT MOVEMENT. THE GLOW OF LIGHTS. THE BUZZ OF TECHNOLOGY AND HUM OF WORLD COMMERCE. A CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS. NAVIGATING AN ENDLESS MAZE OF STREETS. AMID THE CHAOS, ROLLING ALONG SILENTLY AND EFFICIENTLY, I FEEL THE HEARTBEAT OF THE CITY. THE STREETS ARE MINE.

BAD BOY

THE NEW URBAN LEGEND

IT’S A JUNGLE OUT THERE. WHAT’S NEEDED IS A CLEAN BLADE TO CLEAR A PATH. INTRODUCING THE REDESIGNED BAD BOY, A TWO-WHEELED MACHETE TO SLICE THROUGH THE DENSEST TRAFFIC. The challenge of updating any design classic since the wheel lies in improving without reinventing. The new Bad Boy is an enhanced version of the original, a successor that maintains the essential ingredients of a legend. A SmartForm C1 chassis embodies this discrete but thorough transformation. Made with the sophisticated, computer-controlled Flow Modelling process developed for the CAAD12, the new Bad Boy frame is fashioned from a set of 6061 aluminium tubes treated to our full gamut of forming techniques. Light, but strong, stiff, but responsive, and now sleeker than ever, courtesy of a headtube and downtime forged in a single piece, the Bad Boy is a rolling artwork among a market littered with utilitarian make-dos. Bad Boy 1 and 2, the twin peaks of the range, both feature the Lefty OPI fork, a study in simplicity and one-piece integration; rigid for stiffness and speed, and equipped with a integrated LED strip. The flagship models also include the LED seatpost. Innovation has been a Cannondale watchword as long as there’s been Cannondale, and the Gates belt drive on the flagship Bad Boy 1, and the large volume tyres on 650b wheels present throughout the range are both clear examples of a propensity to think outside of the box. When the streets are a jungle, be sure to go armed. The new Bad Boy is your weapon of choice: discrete, elegant and utterly focused. Better make way.

2017 BAD BOY: Forward-thinking design meets serious city performance. Urban mobility has never looked so good.

KEY BAD BOY FEATURES: »» STYLE WITH SUBSTANCE Beautifully designed to deliver striking looks and street-fighter performance. »» GET NOTICED Cleanly integrated LED lights in the Lefty LightPipe fork and seatpost, and a highly reflective top tube bumper ensure that you’ll always stand out. »» RULE THE STREETS With its stiff Lefty fork, high volume tyre, and agile point-and-shoot handling, Bad Boy is built to take the city by storm. »» SMOOTH SPEED Big volume tyres on 650b wheels are fast rolling and nimble handling, with crazy cornering grip and pothole erasing comfort.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES: Bad Boy OPI SmartForm C1 Frame, Lefty LightPipe (1 & 2), 650x40c tyres, Reflective Accents, Si Sandwich Stem (1&2), Clean Internal Cable Management

RIDER PROFILE Forward-thinking, design-focused urbanites seeking the ultimate in stylish city transportation.

The Quick’s SmartForm C1 aluminium chassis draws on Cannondale’s pedigree with this lightweight material. The advanced Quick SL model is built using SmartForm C2 tubes, shaving 200g from the weight of its sister models and has a tapered headtube to stiffen the front end of the bike for more precise steering. The OutFront technology at the centre of some of our most advanced trail bikes is present here too, optimising the Quick’s steering geometry to boost control and confidence when the heat of the city commute is on. Safety is as important as speed and reflective graphics highlight the Quick’s visibility in urban traffic. Strategically placed at key locations on the frame and fork, these ‘accents’ serve a vital purpose without detracting from the overall appearance of this fine looking machine. Comfort is a considered in almost every aspect of the Quick, from the SAVE microsuspension features at the rear of the bike, to the ergonomic grips and saddle. Large platform pedals spread pressure evenly and keep feet firmly planted. The new you starts with you. Fitness and freedom are only a wheel-turn away.

TANGO

WHERE PERFORMANCE BEGINS

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. THE START OF SOMETHING SPECIAL. TANGO OFFERS A GATEWAY TO A POWERFUL ROMANCE. An affair with cycling can quickly turn to obsession, so choose your partner carefully. Cannondale is attractive and experienced; dependable, but constantly surprising. Tango embodies all of these desirable qualities. It’s a bike ready for anything, from XC racing to the sheer joy of trail riding, built around a lightweight, alloy frame and the 27.5 wheel standard, offering a perfect balance of speed and agility. Not all entry-level bikes are created equal. The Tango’s chassis is fashioned from our sophisticated SmartForm C2 aluminium, making it the lightest in a competitive class. Smoothness is equally important for riders new to the rigours of the trail, and Cannondale’s proprietary SAVE technology in the rear triangle - careful shaping of the chainstays and seat stays to build-in deflection - provides added security. A focus on stability continues in the Tango’s geometry, with frame angles specifically chosen to inspire confidence, embracing speed and confidence; traction and predictable steering. Generosity is another attractive quality and the Tango is generously specced, with WTB tyres, Cannondale C-Series cockpits and hydraulic disc brakes throughout the range. Love can be a conflict between the head and the heart, but the Tango lets both hold sway. Rational thought or reckless passion will lead you to the same conclusion – that the Tango is the ideal partner for your new affair with cycling.

QUICK

START THE CYCLE A NEW BIKE IS A NEW COMPANION, AN ACCOMPLICE FOR YOUR OUTDOOR ADVENTURES, AN AGENT OF CHANGE FOR THE NEW YOU. CHOOSE CAREFULLY. CHOOSE QUICK.

The Quick’s SmartForm C1 aluminium chassis draws on Cannondale’s pedigree with this lightweight material. The advanced Quick SL model is built using SmartForm C2 tubes, shaving 200g from the weight of its sister models and has a tapered headtube to stiffen the front end of the bike for more precise steering. The OutFront technology at the centre of some of our most advanced trail bikes is present here too, optimising the Quick’s steering geometry to boost control and confidence when the heat of the city commute is on. Safety is as important as speed and reflective graphics highlight the Quick’s visibility in urban traffic. Strategically placed at key locations on the frame and fork, these ‘accents’ serve a vital purpose without detracting from the overall appearance of this fine looking machine. Comfort is a considered in almost every aspect of the Quick, from the SAVE micro-suspension features at the rear of the bike, to the ergonomic grips and saddle. Large platform pedals spread pressure evenly and keep feet firmly planted. The new you starts with you. Fitness and freedom are only a wheel-turn away. Brand new starts have rarely seemed so attractive. Change is easy. Make it Quick.

2017 QUICK: With lightest-in-class weights, bright reflective graphics and a smooth, stable ride, the all-new Quick is the fast, fun way to get fit or get around town.

KEY QUICK FEATURES: »» BE SEEN The Quicks’ graphics all feature bright 360° reflective elements for that extra measure of safety. »» COMFORT IS KING Enhanced SAVE Micro-Suspension features in the rear triangle, plus ergonomic grips, saddle and pedals keep riders comfortable and connected. »» CONFIDENT CONTROL Our OutFront steering geometry makes the Quick so stable, so confident and such swoopy fun to ride, that you might just forget you’re working out. »» LIGHTER IS BETTER In true Cannondale form, Quick bikes are the lightest in their class. Easier to pedal, easier to lift, easier to love! »» SMART SIZING Both Quick and Quick SL frames share a new geometry that offers an easier reach to the bars and features consistent jumps in stack and reach across all sizes, for easy fitting.

ALTHEA

RIDE WITHOUT LIMITS

THE ALTHEA IS THE DO-IT-ALL MACHINE AS CONFIDENT IN THE CUT AND THRUST OF URBAN COMMUTES AS ON TRANQUIL TOWPATHS, GRAVEL TRAILS AND JAUNTS THROUGH ROLLING PARKLAND. Combining the enhanced visibility and control of an upright, flat-bar riding position, with a lightweight, SmartForm C2 alloy frame, the Althea is a bike without limits - fast and comfortable. Comfort and control are ying and yang - one without the other is less than half of the whole. Both are central to the Althea proposition. The SAVE micro-suspension system built into the chassis combines with a slender seatpost to deflect bumps from even the most poorly surfaced roads. The Althea is a bike with versatility built in. The suspension fork takes the judder from the most rutted paths without compromising speed on the tarmac. The tyres are wide, multi-surface treads that offer grip without slowing you down. Integrated mudguard mounts make this a bike as suited to winter downpours as summer jaunts, while rack mounts allow the Althea to become a willing accomplice for two-wheeled adventures.

2017 ALTHEA: An adventurous bike for adventurous spirits. From rugged urban commuting to dirt-road exploration, Althea is the perfect mix of sport and utility.

KEY ALTHEA FEATURES: »» MOUNTAIN-INSPIRED FRAME. The women’s frame design matches the ruggedness of a mountain bike with the speed of 700c wheels. Super low standover means easy mounting and dismounting. »» RIDER-TAILORED GEOMETRY - ALTHEA The women’s specific geometry of the Althea delivers the speed and agility of a city bike, with the stability and heads-up comfort of a mountain bike. »» COMFORT COMES STANDARD SAVE Micro-Suspension seat stays and chain stays work with a smaller 27.2mm seatpost, heads-up riding position and an ergonomic saddle and grips to increase comfort and control in any terrain. »» MAXIMUM VERSATILITY Big 35c multi-surface tyres are fast and grippy on dirt and pavement, and full rack and fender mounts let you customize your Althea for the type of riding you’re into. »» LIGHTER = MORE FUN Thanks to Cannondale’s unmatched aluminium expertise, Althea is super light but offers heavyweight performance, on-road or off.
