While many companies
claim it - System
integration (Si) is
nothing new at
Cannondale. For over
15 years Cannondale
has been developing
bikes holistically -
where the entire
bike is considered
in the process. |
|
|
|
|
|
We know that if we
can build a frame
and a major
component to work
together as a
system—the result
will be better
performance in terms
of weight,
efficiency and
handling |
|
|
|
|
The Si features of
the System Six are
noticeable at a
glance. The
oversized head tube
of the carbon frame
accepts an oversized
and tapered fork
steerer tube. The
head set bearing
cups are also
integrated into the
design to save
weight. It’s topped
off with an Si
full-carbon. stem.
The result is
greater stiffness
for out-of-the
saddle sprinting,
climbing and more
precise handling on
twisty descents |
