The Topstone CAAD 2 CUES 1x is the workhorse of the new aluminium Topstone range, and for a lot of riders it'll be the sweet spot. It brings the premium frame, carbon fork, smart mounts and confident handling of the platform together with a tough, simple drivetrain, for weekday roads, weekend gravel and everything in between.
The SmartForm C1 alloy frame is built with Cannondale's CAAD craft: custom-butted and swaged tubes, smooth welds and a lifetime warranty. A full carbon fork saves weight and adds comfort, and OutFront Steering Geometry keeps the bike calm at speed but quick in tight spots. There's clearance for tyres up to 52mm in the frame and 56mm in the fork, and the frame is ready for a Lefty Oliver suspension fork if you want more control later.
Shimano CUES 1x11 is reliable and hard-wearing, with an 11-50 cassette that gives you a low gear for steep climbs. CUES hydraulic disc brakes, GXD wheels and 45mm WTB Vulpine tubeless-ready tyres make it equally at home on tarmac and loose gravel.
