Jolanda takes Flight

Jolanda Neff knows the feel of a fast bike. Olympic gold. A world title. European titles. National titles. World Cup wins. Years at the sharp end of mountain bike racing taught her where speed lives and where it fails. In the front end. In the chassis. In the split second between a rider’s input and a bike that responds with real speed in it from one that only talks a good game.

Barcelona gave FlyingV the right proving ground. The city climbs, tightens, opens, and shifts fast. The streets demand a bike that stays light in hand, responsive under load, and ready when the route changes. FlyingV meets that demand with race-bred composure and urban purpose.

Jolanda felt it immediately. The frame responded with the same quick read she knows from mountain bikes. Direct. Clear. Ready to adapt when the street changes shape. As she puts it, “It has the same precision I rely on in racing, just in a different environment. You can feel the engineering. It rides like a performance bike because it is one.” That reaction sits at the center of this story, because FlyingV carries real MTB blood into the city through carbon craft, tuned geometry, and a chassis shape pulled from one of Cannondale’s most radical signatures.

That signature is etched in history. Delta V broke form wide open years ago and gave Cannondale a silhouette no one mistook for anything else. FlyingV carries that line forward in carbon, then puts it to work in the city. The dropped top tube opens the frame for easy step-over and clean carry. Full-carbon construction keeps the chassis light, taut, and immediate. Bosch assist comes on smooth, stays natural, and fades clean as speed surges. Carbon fenders tie the structure together and keep the bike fast cockpit to carrier.

That line carries weight because it comes from a rider who knows when a frame stays true under pressure. FlyingV carries Cannondale Factory Racing instinct out of the mountains and into the city. The terrain may change—but the feeling doesn’t have to.

Born from the mountains.

Built for the city.
