2018 Cannondale SuperX Force 1 review

Oct 2017 · Thomas McDaniel

The abundant tire clearance, vertical compliance and clean lines are a blessing for gravel riding and racing. Buy if you’re more frequently lining up for mixed-terrain races than true ‘cross racing

Highs
  • ‘Cross-specific cable routing, lively composite layup, tire clearance

Lows
  • High-speed stability, power transfer, wheels, seatpost clamp
