Cannondale Topstone gets a makeover! The ultimate gravel bike has evolved even further.
Cannondale's gravel bike, the Topstone Carbon, is now available in its third-generation evolution!
This gravel machine, which is "go-anywhere, carry-anything, fast, and exciting," has been further enhanced.
It features the evolved KingPin suspension for a smoother, more comfortable ride and a gravel-specific Lefty Oliver fork, along with many detailed improvements.
Key Updates from Previous Models
▪️ Fully Internal Cable Routing
The new Topstone Carbon features fully internal cable routing throughout the frame.
Not only does this create a cleaner look, but it also offers more freedom for attaching bags around the handlebars!
▪️ Geometry Designed for Suspension Forks
The new model is designed around the Lefty Oliver fork (40mm travel).
The rigid fork is approximately 25mm longer in overall length. The geometry remains the same whether using a rigid or suspension fork, so there's no difference in feel regardless of your choice.
You can enjoy a nimble ride with a rigid fork or a comfortable and aggressive ride utilizing the suspension.
▪️ Increased Tire Clearance
・Frame accommodates tires up to 52mm
・Rigid fork allows up to 56mm
・700x47mm is optimal for the Lefty Oliver specific geometry
Now capable of not only gravel riding but also light trail riding!
▪️ Addition of "StashPort" Storage Box
The new model features a StashPort (storage box) integrated into the downtube!
Store tools and nutrition in the included StashBag for comfortable long rides without a backpack.
Perfect for those who want to carry their essentials smartly.
Evolved Technology
▪️ KingPin Rear Suspension
The evolved KingPin suspension provides up to 30mm of rear travel.
The entire frame flexes smoothly, supporting comfortable riding even on rough terrain.
It offers even smoother movement than the previous model!
🚴 Lefty Oliver Fork
The gravel-specific Lefty Oliver fork has evolved from 30mm to 40mm of travel!
A newly developed damper provides smoother initial movement for enhanced comfort.
🎯 OutFront Steering Geometry
With a long reach, slack head angle, and increased front fork offset, the design ensures stability and control even on rough terrain and at high speeds. This geometry balances stability with nimble handling.
It's also perfect for those who want to "attack gravel!"
It's also great that your toes are less likely to hit the front wheel.
