  • Stealthy aesthetics

  • Impressive ride quality

  • Telepathic handling dynamics

  • Could be lighter

Cannondale F-Si Hi-Mod World Cup review

Jan 2019 · Guy Kesteven

Uniquely-forked, arse-kicking ultralight XC racer but not for the faint-hearted or under-financed. Buy if you want a fast and ferocious XC racer

Highs
  • Unique fork and wishlist kit spec make it a real head turner, seriously light yet stiff enough to track hard, well-controlled but lightweight fork, nicely balanced between max power delivery and reasonable punishment

Lows
  • Unique features can create spares issues, high cost goes with the territory, not the lightest frame, fork or off-the-peg bike
