Cannondale SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod Dura Ace 1 Road Bike 2016

Anyone that has ridden one of the high-modulus SuperSix frames will be able to wax lyrical about the quality. Excitingly then, this incredible bike has been updated for 2016 in the form of the Cannondale SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod Dura Ace 1 Road Bike 2016. Understated, featuring one of the lightest framesets on the planet and one of the most desirable finishing kit lists around. Speed is at the heart of this bike, with a new SuperSix EVO BallisTec Carbon SPEED SAVE frame. This is paired with a Pressfit BB30 bottom bracket and the exceptionally smooth, lightweight and stiff Cannondale HollowGram SiSL2 crankset. Shimano's, top of the range, 'D1' Dura-Ace 9000, 11-speed provides precise, fast shifting and stopping power and comes in a more complete form for this year's bike.

This is one high performance road bike. The Mavic Kysrium Pro wheels are normally an upgrade so it is incredible that Cannondale have been able to include them in this build. A race-ready setup does not mean it is an uncomfortable one. Fizik are well established in the cycling industry, producing saddles for the likes of Tour de France champion Chris Froome, and they have added their Arione R3 saddle and Team grips. The Arione saddle features the unique K:ium Rails to save further weight and add comfort.

Improvements for this year are seen in the frame and fork also. Cannondale have improved stiffness in the bottom bracket, headtube and fork to give you even better response and performance. This has not come at the cost of comfort, as compliance where it is needed has gone up by 20% to keep you fresher for longer and allow you to sustain your best efforts. Thankfully, Cannondale have been able to tackle aerodynamics without making a ridiculous and impractical looking bike. Clever Truncated Aero Profile (TAP) tube shapes allow you to further cheat the wind for an added six watts of saving even over last year's model. All of these advancements have not come with a weight penalty though, as amazingly Cannondale have managed to save an additional seventy grams from the system weight. Considering all of these together, really emphasises the jaw dropping quality of this super bike that you will really be able to notice.

This bike is truly unparalleled in its completeness, there really is little you could want or need to upgrade as this SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod D1 is built to excellent specification levels all over.

Cannondale really have designed the ultimate performance road bike, equally at home on climbs, bunch sprints or just clocking up some serious miles. If you are looking to find some serious speed, then this Cannondale SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod D1 Road Bike 2016 could be the bike for you.
