Cannondale CAADX Ultegra

Feb 2018 · Paul Norman

Cannondale’s alloy cyclocross bike range shares its geometry with the carbon SuperX so should offer great handling like its carbon sibling

Highs
  • Good off road agility

  • Flattened top tube for comfortable shouldering

  • Effective hydraulic braking

  • Versatile frame design

Lows
  • Non-tubeless tyres

  • External gear cable routing

  • A bit on the heavy side for racing
