Everything to hate about Cannondales in one fugly portion
Note it has no pedals as no one would be seen dead actually riding that thing

Those are Cannondale's new proprietary pedal system, where you slot a metal pole built into the sole of your shoe straight into the crank arm.
Helps stop the BB30 creaking so much, apparently.

To me, that's an MTB with drop bars on it. End of.

Re: How's this for devisive?
Precisely. Absolutely no need for suspension on a CX bike, it will just make you a lot slower on 95% of any given course. Or are you supposed to fiddle about locking and unlocking it in the middle of a CX race? Theres not even time to take a drink if you're racing properly.Steve (Stan) Hanks wrote:To me, that's an MTB with drop bars on it. End of.
And as for the Lefty fork, I don't care if it works or not, it is just the ugliest thing ever to be attached to a bike and should have been left on the drawing board years ago. End of.

Maybe it's the crossover bike for the battle on the beach? Speaking of which, I urge anybody and everybody with a CX or MTB to stick it on their bucket list. Entries open New Year's Day.

A solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Waste of time...
