Cannondale Systemsix – A Complete Overview

The Cannondale SystemSix stands as our uncompromising dedication to pure, unadulterated speed. It is a purpose-built aerodynamic road bike, engineered not just as a frame, but as a complete system where every component works in harmony to reduce drag and increase velocity. This is a bike for the cyclist who believes that speed is paramount, whether in a breakaway, a sprint, or simply during a fast-paced group ride. The SystemSix is a testament to our mission to create the fastest bike possible, giving riders a tangible advantage in the constant battle against wind resistance.

Advantages
The SystemSix's speed is the result of a holistic design approach, integrating every element to create a single, high-speed machine.

Integrated Aerodynamic System: The Cannondale scalpel is designed as a six-point system—frame, fork, seatpost, bar, stem, and wheels—all working together to defeat aerodynamic drag. The result is a bike that saves significant wattage at speed, translating to a faster ride with less effort.

Advanced Truncated Airfoil Shapes: The frame tubes, fork, and seatpost all feature highly refined truncated airfoil shapes that maintain optimal airflow and minimize drag, not just from the front but from a variety of wind angles.

Exceptional Wheel Design: The wheels are a core part of the bike’s aerodynamic profile, featuring a wide, aerodynamically optimized rim shape. This design works with wider tires to improve ride quality and reduce rolling resistance without compromising on speed.

Seamless Cable Integration: The cockpit features a clean, integrated cable routing system. This not only gives the bike a sleek and modern aesthetic but also removes exposed cables from the wind, further contributing to the overall aerodynamic advantage.

Conclusion
In a world where every second counts, the SystemSix is engineered to deliver a decisive edge. It proves that a bike can be incredibly fast and still feel responsive and controllable. By meticulously optimizing every surface for the highest possible speed, the SystemSix provides a powerful and exhilarating riding experience. It is the ultimate expression of speed, built for riders who are driven by the pursuit of pure velocity.
