OVERSIZED SEAT STAYS FOR BETTER POWER TRANSFER
For 2008 we've oversized the seat stays of the
Caffeine. By increasing the diameter of the tubes
we've not only reduced wall thickness and shaved
weight - but increased stiffness and power transfer.

WEIGHT: Don’t see a weight listed for this bike? Wondering why that is? Well we used to list our weights only to realize that while Cannondale will weigh a medium or 56 cm frame and err on the side of caution when we know there will be variances due to welds etc, our competitors (and you know who they are) are weighing their small or extra small frames and rounding down (because hey, who will know?) and you’re left wondering what’s going on and making an important decision based upon BS.
So because weight is too important to you as a consumer, we ask that you PLEASE do your homework and visit your local shop so you can compare our bike weights to their bike weights for yourself… apples to apples with no marketing BS. Don’t believe us. Don’t believe them. Go see it, feel it, weigh it and test ride it for yourself. Yes, we’re that confident. You should be too. |
