Comments about cannondale ALTHEA 3:
This bike will take you from pavement to light off road trails in style and comfort. The bike is agile, lightweight and a joy to ride. I do have to mention however that in no way this bike is a substitute for a mountain bike when it comes to challenging terrain i.e with large roots, sand and/or mud.
