Technologies & Innovations of the Cannondale CAAD Optimo
SmartForm C2
Developed using a flow modeling process, the CAAD Optimo's SmartForm C2 aluminum construction is much lighter and offers better performance than many premium aluminum models from other suppliers.
Elite Race Geometry
The CAAD Optimo shares the geometry of the CAAD12 and SuperSix EVO and offers riders genuine race handling including the appropriate seating position.
SAVE Micro-Suspension
Specially engineered flex zones in the seat- and chainstays absorb shock and vibrations.
Tapered HeadTube
A tapered steerer strikes the perfect balance of stiffness, handling and weight.
Integrated Rack/Fender Mounts
The versatility is further expanded by subtle mounts, ideal for commuting/wet weather training.
