At the heart of the bike is Cannondale’s Kingpin suspension system, which offers up to 30mm of rear travel while maintaining stiffness and efficiency. This allows the bike to absorb vibrations and impacts, keeping you comfortable on long rides. Proportional Response construction fine-tunes frame compliance and geometry for each size, ensuring a balanced ride for all riders.

The wireless SRAM Rival AXS 1x12 drivetrain provides seamless, intuitive shifting with no cables to worry about. Paired with a massive 10-52T SRAM GX cassette, this setup delivers a wide range of gears for tackling steep climbs and maintaining speed on fast descents.

SRAM Rival hydraulic disc brakes ensure powerful and consistent stopping power with 160mm CenterLine X rotors, giving you confidence in all conditions. The Reserve 40 I 44 GR carbon wheels, designed with Turbulent Aero Tech, offer a blend of lightweight performance and durability, while DT Swiss 370 hubs provide smooth engagement.

WTB Raddler 700x44c tubeless-ready tyres strike the perfect balance between grip and rolling speed, with an aggressive tread pattern that bites into loose surfaces while remaining fast on hardpack. Cannondale’s SAVE carbon seatpost and Easton EA70 AX flared handlebars enhance comfort and control over long distances.

The integrated Cannondale Wheel Sensor syncs with the Cannondale App, offering real-time speed, distance, and route tracking, along with service reminders. Whether you're tackling demanding gravel races, multi-day bikepacking trips, or epic all-terrain adventures, the Cannondale Topstone Carbon Lefty AXS is built to perform. And with 0% APR finance available, upgrading your ride is easier than ever.
