SmartFormed Stealth Alloy
Our most sophisticated aluminum crafting techniques and Stealth fighter-inspired tube shapes deliver light weight, style and performance.
Unique Fork Options
The radical-looking, lightweight single-bladed HeadShok Solo DL50 offers 50 mm of fluid travel, hydraulic damping and convenient lockout, while the non-suspension Solo or Fatty rigid forks are super light and precise.
Rider Tailored Geometry
Bad Boy, not surprisingly, has some attitude in its more-aggressive-than-most urban geometry. Its position and angles deliver quick responsiveness, while still giving good rider visibility in traffic.

Comments about cannondale BAD BOY 9:
Its a great first (other than my first Huffy in the 80s) great first adult bike. The seat was hard, but I got used to it after 2 weeks.
Tires have massive grip for slicks. I even rode it in the rain. My clumsy self didn't fall.
Bike is tougher than its already tough looks.
Some bikes were expensive, but you can tell this bike is worth the price.

Comments about cannondale BAD BOY 9:
I commute 5 days a week in the varying weather and terrain of Western NC on my Bad Boy 9. Got it outfitted from a local independent bike shop with fenders and a back rack. They had to do a little work to fit the front fender but everything else came together easily. The bike looks and rides beautifully, but parks under the radar so I feel comfortable leaving it outside the pub or grocery store. Love the upright more MTB approach to the geometry. Just a great ride.
