Highlights
Every meter a pleasure
KingPin is the lightweight rear suspension to ride even longer. It is maintenance-free, uncomplicated and gives the Topstone frame sufficient rear wheel travel without compromising on sprint stiffness. KingPin scores with a more comfortable ride, more traction at high speeds and more compliance in rough terrain. Although the suspension is barely noticeable when riding, you can rely on it in any situation.
Always have everything with you
Built for even more adventure and equipment transportation. The brand new StashPort down tube storage compartment and the StashBag storage bag keep your tools and essentials comfortable, safe and protected from the elements. In addition, countless mounting points make this bike an absolute bikepacking expert.
Perfect fine-tuning
Perfectly tuned handling - just right for you. Cannondale calls it: Proportional Response. From the carbon layup to the geometry of the Topstone, everything is individually adjusted to the frame size. Thanks to the KingPin rear suspension, this ensures a harmonious ride, no matter how big or small you are.
KingPin
The innovative gravel bike rear suspension is light, simple and effective. The pivot axle system in the seat tube allows the rear triangle and seat post to flex vertically, providing up to 30 mm of shock-absorbing suspension travel.
StashPort + StashBag
StashPort is the version of a storage compartment in the down tube and is located under the bottle cage. Each model comes with StashBag, a specially designed bag for your most important items.
Tire clearance
The Topstone Carbon accepts tires with a maximum measured width of up to 52 mm for the frame and 56 mm for the rigid fork. The tire clearance of the Lefty Oliver is optimized for 700 x 47 mm tires, whereby the height is the primary limiting factor.
Compatible with dropper posts
Suitable for 27.2 mm dropper posts with internal cable routing - really no surprise on a bike with such impressive performance.
OutFront steering geometry
Reliable directional stability meets agile maneuverability. An extra-large fork offset paired with a flat steering angle not only ensures light and dynamic steering behavior, but also incredible safety at high speeds and in rough terrain.
Clean look
Internal cable routing through the frame in combination with the Conceal stem creates a clean look.
What it is made for
Gravel biking & gravel racing, bikepacking, tough training sessions or extended tours on gravel roads and asphalt
Please note that pedals are not included!
