Best of all worlds
With a lightweight aluminium frame and the same traction, fit and handling as the Cannondale SuperX, the CAADX is the ultimate all-terrain racing bike for racing on Sundays and driving to work on Mondays.
The advanced SmartForm C2 aluminum construction and CAAD12-inspired tube shapes make the CAADX lightweight and easy to shoulder, while the SAVE micro-suspension helps you find your way through rough terrain. Discreet carrier mounts, a removable seat stay bridge and hidden fender mounts on the fork increase the usability of the CAADX without compromising the sporty look. Even if it doesn't have the massive clearance of the SuperX, the CAADX offers enough space for 35mm wide tires even with its super short chainstays.

Technologies & Innovations of the Cannondale CAADX
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.
Flat Mount Rear Brake
A low profile, easily adjustable and lightweight flat mount rear disc brake provides safety and stability.
SAVE Micro-Suspension
Delivers a smoother, more controlled ride thanks to strategically engineered flex zones built into the frame's rear triangle.
Fender Up
Fully fender compatible. A removable fender stay between the seat stays is there when you need it and quickly dismantled if not.
