Features
Universal Phone Clamp + Cannondale App
Simple integration pairs your phone instantly, logging speed, distance, and progress directly. Digital connection simplified, metrics personalized.
Performance Posture Geometry
An athletic, upright stance boosts comfort, enhances vision, and amplifies power transfer. Ride stronger, ride smoother.
Kickstand-Ready Frame
For added real-world convenience, Quick offers two ways to mount a kickstand. A subtle mount on the rear dropout lets you install a Cannondale Si V3 kickstand, or the center plate mount allows for universal kickstand compatibility.
