Choose Advantages. Choose Fun. Choose Cannondale.
When Cannondale pioneered use of aluminum bicycles, others soon joined us. When we began using System Integration, our peers hopped on the idea. And when we released the BB30 standard, others within the bicycle industry recognized it as an improvement upon an old design.
We don’t rest on those laurels: More changes are on the horizon that benefit riders. To get there, Cannondale’s developers follow several simple product-creation rules that are part of our belief in “Manifest Design”:
- Have substance behind our designs – real, provable engineering solutions, rather than showy, gimmicky designs that do little for a rider.
- Match design needs with engineering specs. Anybody can weld three tubes together and call it a bike frame. The key for us is to make products that simultaneously deliver the ultimate performance in a package that’s appealing to ride.
- Defy tradition when it comes to thinking about bike design. We’ve been doing it for years, and will continue to come up with innovative engineering solutions that do away with excess weight and unneeded complexity.
- Avail ourselves of the best experts and materials in the industry to succeed in our design innovation. We are the materials experts, and will continue to push bicycle designs onto new ground when the results contain quantifiable advantages for cyclists.
