Road Frames

The S5 prioritizes aerodynamic performance and stiffness, making it a platform preferred by the fastest sprinters in the world. You've no doubt noticed the now-iconic V-Stem. We optimized that shape to deliver the best possible performance in the wind, hid the cables inside, and made enough bar/stem/stack options to fit just about anyone. It'll clear 28mm tires, too so you can eke out even more aero advantage.

Nothing is Impassable. The gravel bar has been raised. The LAB71 Topstone Frameset takes the performance and capability of our Topstone Carbon platform to the next level. Highlights - Series 0 Carbon construction yields the lightest Topstone ever. - Kingpin integrated rear suspension for a silky smooth ride and unmatched traction. - SAVE Carbon Seatpost for added comfort. Fine-tuning the Fine-tuned The LAB71 Topstone carbon frameset gets more from less. We took the Topstone Carbon frameset and pushed it to the next level, with a special carbon lay-up that drops over 160g but preserves its toughness, versatility, and performance. Just when you thought Topstone couldn't get any better... Looking Closer LAB71 elevates aesthetics to the level of the engineering. Look as closely as you want at the LAB71 Topstone frameset, and the stunning finishes and meticulous attention to detail won't escape you. The only way to make it look better is to add a little dirt. King of Comfort The Kingpin suspension system offers up to 30mm of bump-smoothing, traction-increasing suspension travel at the rear wheel, and it does so without the weight or complexity of shocks or linkages. The result? More comfort, more control, and more fun. Get Loaded Topstone's always down for a good time. You've got the space and flexibility to set up Topstone Carbon for the long haul, or just a big haul. Multiple gear mounts both above and below the downtube, on the seat tube, on the top tube, and on both blades of the fork give you endless configurations for storage.

Faster everywhere Our fastest lightweight road bike ever. The all-new SuperSix EVO destroys expectations. So light, so fast, and so aero, it defies logic. This is a machine built to make you faster everywhere. Speed has evolved. Where it thrives - Racing, the red zone, the pointy end, the podium What it's built for - Road racing, PRs, KOMs, winning Highlights - Superlight Hi-MOD carbon construction - incredibly light and responsive - Cannondale C1 Aero 40 Carbon Seatpost - light and fast The Lightest of the Fast Incredibly light. Thrillingly responsive. Blisteringly fast. Our advanced Hi-MOD carbon construction combines layers of high-strength fibers with precisely oriented layers of lightweight, high-stiffness fibers to deliver a frame that weighs just 810g, while surpassing all of our stiffness and fatigue tests. Pretty amazing for a bike this aerodynamic. The Fastest of the Light When it comes to aerodynamic drag, the new SuperSix EVO is not just one of the fastest lightweight road bikes out there, it's one of the fastest road bikes, period. When built up with our HollowGram 50 R-SL wheels and R-One SystemBar, its refined tube shapes and fully systemized design shave 12 watts off of our last generation model at 45 km/h, making it faster than many pure "aero" bikes while weighing up to a kilo less. Light or Aero? Now you don't have to choose.

A pure road bike. Light, smooth, and ultra-fast. The evolution of the classic race machine.

The Soloist. It's a name from deep in our history, but immediately familiar to anyone with bike racing memories extending back to the early-2000s. It was the weapon of choice for top World Tour contenders on CSC and the Cervelo Test Team, and we're bringing it back for a new generation. The new Soloist is designed for the week-in, week-out rider and racer who can only justify one high-performance bike. It balances light weight and aerodynamic advantages to deliver a bike that really is 'just right'. Soloist comes in a hair lighter than S5, but significantly more aerodynamic than R5, and borrows the threaded bottom bracket standard you find on the R5-CX. It's a race bike that can accommodate mechanical and electronic shifting, can hammer out the training miles in all weather, and yet still has the chops to leap off the front at that decisive moment. That's the Soloist.
