Cannondale CAAD Optimo Disc Tiagra Road Bike 2018
The Cannondale CAAD Optimo range is all-new for 2018, bringing a new lease of life to their mighty CAAD12 collection by instilling race-bred performance for riders who are new to cycling, or perhaps need a training bike for the winter.
The frame is constructed from Cannondale’s SmartForm C2 Aluminium construction that’s lighter and provides a greater ride feel than many of Cannondale’s main competitors, and Cannondale’s Elite Race Geometry provides the same ride performance, alongside race handling and body position as the CAAD12 and SuperSix EVO - making this bike ideal for training and first timers looking for a bit more performance.
SAVE is just one part of the trickle down technology that the Optimo Disc Tiagra has in-store, and due to specifically engineered flex zones in the rear triangle and fork, the bike can absorb more shock and road vibrations for better comfort and control.
Integrated mudguard and pannier rack mounts add to the Optimo's versatility, allowing you to strap on your gear and head out for weekend-long adventures. This also makes it ideal for commuting/wet weather training.
Using Shimano Tiagra 4700, 10-speed gearing, Cannondale have enhanced the Optimo Tiagra’s ability to tackle a wide variety of terrain. The wide range of gearing allows you to take on more testing climbs, or even longer flats as you fine tune your riding style and push yourself to the next level.
Render R disc brakes are also another area where the Optimo excels. Their disc frames were designed specifically around the advantages of disc brakes, and therefore work alongside Render to create better modulation and control - this means disc brakes on the Optimo don't just offer more stopping power, but they offer better stopping power as well.
Finished with a range of capable and durable components such as a Cannondale Stage Ergo saddle, a Cannondale C4 seatpost and a Cannondale C4 handlebar, the Cannondale CAAD Optimo Disc Tiagra Road Bike 2017 is the ideal road bike for anyone looking to step into the world of cycling, or for experienced riders looking for a highly-durable winter training bike.
