Cannondale's attention to detail on the Topstone is excellent, and they've made some really interesting design choices to stand out in an increasingly-crowded category. Apparently they've succeeded -- the Topstone 105 has been the third most popular bike on all of 99 Spokes this year.
Well balanced
Descends well
Good power transfer
No mount points on the fork
Cheap bottom bracket

Overall, the Cannondale Topstone Carbon Lefty 3 is a fun bike. Yes, a tad on the heavy side, but with some slight changes could be made lighter. Topstone Carbon Lefty 3...

Immensely capable gravel machine that will take you further off the beaten track than ever
Handling
Control
Comfort and speed
Little, but the price is high
Feb 2021 · Stu Bowers
Great fun to take almost anywhere off-road, but lacks overall versatility that defines a true gravel bike
Superb front suspension
Retains performance feel
Clean aesthetic
Suspension adds weight and cost
Dec 2020 · Dave Atkinson
Fast, light gravel ripper with top-notch equipment and useful suspension tech
Suspension a genuine benefit off road
Fast and fun ride
Dropper and mudguard compatible
Fiddly front wheel removal
Tyres not up to technical stuff
Costs large amounts of money
Sep 2020 · James Stout
Tons of fun - though we'd like a little more tyre clearance for techy trails, please
Fork is excellent
Balanced and responsive handling
Lefty hub limits wheel choice
Would like more clearance

The Cannondale Topstone Lefty 3 draws from the best ideas in Cannondale’s history. It’s a full-suspension gravel race bike that brings back the out-of-the-box thinking we've come to expect from Cannondale
Lots of tyre clearance
Front suspension is easily locked out
Adaptable for different uses
No mounts on the fork
Mudguards aren’t available
