Cannondale Topstone Carbon 2 AXS 1x 2025 - Gravel Bike
Carbon Frame
The Topstone is built on a lightweight carbon frame featuring Cannondale’s proportional response geometry delivering a fast and responsive ride. An extra long fork offset paired with a slack head angle is designed for lively steering while offering confidence on technical terrain. The frame also features internal cable routing throughout, combined with a concealed stem offering a tidy and integrated look.
Stash Port
All models now includes a StashPort downtube storage system, which can be easily accessed under the bottle cage, to allow you to carry all your essentials with you on shorter rides or offering more storage for bike packing trips.
Kingpin Suspension
The frame features Cannondale’s Kingpin gravel rear suspension. A thru axle pivot in the seat tube allows for the rear triangle and seatpost to flex vertically offering up to 30mm travel for additional compliance and will smooth out any bumps.
Built to conquer gravel paths and beyond, the Cannondale Topstone Carbon 2 AXS 1x pairs a lightweight carbon frame with the revolutionary Kingpin suspension system, delivering up to 30mm of rear travel without the added weight or complexity of traditional suspension. This design smooths out rough trails while maintaining excellent pedalling efficiency, allowing riders to tackle technical terrain with confidence and speed.
