Additional Information
| SKU | C11RA85 |
| Manufacturer | Cannondale |
| Model | CAAD8 5 105 |
| Features | The CAAD8 shares the proven race geometry of its more expensive brethren but with
a slightly taller head tube for a more relaxed riding position. Cannondale’s trademark double-pass smooth weld technology eliminates the stress-risers and weak points found on traditionally welded frames, enabling us to build lighter, stronger frames. The hourglass shape of the seat stays offers significant vertical compliance for comfort and control over rough surfaces, while remaining laterally rigid for solid power transfer and confident handling. 4. Asymmetric Chain Stays,, we oversize and reshape the driveside chain stay to better handle the loads from the drivetrain, while keeping the non-drive stay svelte for weight savings. 5. Externally Machined Head Tube, excess material is precisely machined out of the low stress areas of the head tube, saving significant weight with no loss of strength. The CAAD8 features 6061 aluminum which has been taper-butted and heat-treated to a T6 hardness. |
