      This is my "gym membership" that doubles as a sanity connection.

      I traded my perfect two year old Trek hybrid in as it was simply too slow. This bike is a night and day difference. It is engineered to climb easier, it seems to utilize my energy much more effectively than any bike I have ever owned.

      This truly is the best bike I have ever owned!

      My dealer, Bike America in Overland Park, is outstanding! They offer great selection, service, and are very helpful.

        This is my first Cannondale and I am enjoying
        the bicycle.

        this bike has a smooth comfortable ride and great value.

        I would have paid extra for an option for carbon fiber bars and stem.

        My LBS - Bike America was great to work with.

          I have approximately 1500 miles on my Cannondale Supersix 3. I do alot of 20 to 40 mile rides and no matter the distance or terrain, I feel great when I get off this bike. One of the most impressive things about this bike is how explosive it is going up hills. I used to dread going up hill but now I welcome hills of any size.

            Just moving from hybrid to road...wanted something respectable, fun and not too radical change. Found it! It is light, quick and even I can handle it with ease. I absolutely love this bike. I was disappointed when my dealer told me that I would have to wait weeks for the back order of the magnesium white and green to catch up yo me. So, instead of waiting I opted for the flat black and fine silver which was immediately available. Though I was bored to death with my black Trek Livestrong FX, from the moment I saw the black Super Six 3, I was hooked in this bike the color is just right! No regrets!!!

            I will have to put a couple of hundred miles on it soon... I am sure that I will feel the same.

              Comments about cannondale SUPERSIX 3 ULTEGRA:

              This SuperSix Ultegra replaced my R1000 Cannondale ( a very good bike, but the aluminum frame was too bumpy for me).
              From end of february until end of october I did almost 10.000 km and enjoyed every minute of it (and every kilometer).
              It is comfortable enough for a road bike, it climbs very well, and I enjoy the directness of it.
              I only regret that this early 2012 model doesn't have the option to switch to the electric shifting Ultegra set.
              But, who cares..,

                This super 6 replaces my 20+ year old CAAD 4 ultegra which I still love. This bike handles incredibly well. Craftmanship is amazing. Color scheme is perfect. Just a great all around bike. I'm looking forward to putting thousands of miles on this new bike and breaking her in!
                Amazing crisp handling, tight frame when really getting on the crank. This is my first carbon bike so we'll see how it compares to Cannondales amazing aluminum frames, but I'm loving it at the moment! Seems good for short rides as well as centuries. Saddle is relatively comfortable for not being broken in and bike shifts and works well for a new bike! I'll probably change out the tires soon, but other than that, amazing bike!
