Cannondale SuperSix EVO Hi-MOD Team 2016 - Road Bike

Featured in the 2016 RCUK 100 'lightweight, comfortable and aerodynamic in one package'

Sitting at the top of Cannondale’s road race line is the supremely designed SuperSix EVO Hi-MOD Team. Tour magazine named the first EVO the ‘Best Bike in the World’, thanks to its dialled in geometry, low weight, high stiffness and smooth ride.

Frame & Fork

Key to the SuperSix performance is that superb EVO Hi-MOD BallisTec Carbon frame with a greater proportion of higher modulus fibres for a lighter frame that doesn’t sacrifice stiffness. It’s as stiff as the EVO and is also Di2 compatible for future upgrades.

Lateral and torsional rigidity is suitably ultra stiff for a podium winning performance. Upfront a tapered head tube creates a stiffer junction for precision cornering, whilst the BB30 bottom bracket area is rock solid for efficient power transfer.

Subtle flex zones called Speed Save are built into the seatstays, chainstays and fork. They’re designed to flex slightly to take the shock out of fast road racing. Deflection in the BallisTec carbon composite fork is matched to the rear triangle for balance.

Components

As befitting a Team edition, the SuperSix EVO comes with top of the line Shimano Dura Ace Di2 11 speed groupset. Cannondale’s Hollowgram SiSL2 mid compact chainset is very stiff and lightweight. The OPI SpideRing is forged and machined from one block of alloy which reduced weight further and improves shifting performance.

Mavic Cosmic Pro Carbon wheelset is race-ready, lightweight and tough. FSA K-Force carbon bars and seatpost take some of the shock of explosive riding whilst also shaving grams off the total weight.

Key Features :

• The best all-around road racing machine on earth.
• An amazing blend of stiffness, compliance, light weight and aerodynamics.
• Incredible handling, thanks to the tuned balance of stiffness and flex.
• Hi-MOD Ballistec Carbon - Cannondale's proprietary carbon construction method allows us to achieve extreme light weight with amazing strength, while precisely controlling flex throughout the frame for the best possible ride-feel and handling.
• Speed Save Micro-Suspension - Completely reworked flex zones in the chainstays and seatstays allow the rear wheel to track the ground, improving speed, handling and comfort. Tuned to work with the SPEED SAVE Fork. New 25.4mm SAVE seatpost and directional carbon layup in the seat tube allows additional comfort when seated. All told, the new EVO's comfort is improved by over 20%.
• All-New Speed Save Fork - Radical one-piece BallisTec carbon construction. Continuous, uncut carbon from tip of dropouts to top of steerer, 1-1/8"to 1-1/4" tapered steerer with in-molded crown race. 290 grams. 6.1% increase in lateral stiffness. 12.5% increase in compliance. Tuned to work as a system with the rear triangle.
• Delta Seat Tube - For increased stiffness, the seat tube flares to a dramatically wide, ovalized section where it meets the BB.
• Tap ( Truncated Aero Profile) Tube Shapes - Downtube, seat tube, fork blades and upper seat stays have a truncated aero profile which improves aerodynamics, without sacrificing stiffness or weight.
• Continuous Carbon - A continous network of high modulus stiffening fibres runs around joint areas and along the outer edges of the frames tubes, connecting all parts of the frame and allowing precise tuning of stiffness and ride quality.
• 28C Tyre Clearance - The new EVO is designed to accept up to 28c tyres for reduced rolling resistance and improved comfort over rougher roads.
