Cannondale CAAD Optimo Disc Tiagra review

May 2017 · Matthew Loveridge

The CAAD Optimo is a solid performer but not a world-beater in this spec. Buy if you want a versatile, moderately racy all-rounder and you’re set on discs

Highs
  • Likeable ride quality, versatility

Lows
  • Weight, so-so brakes
