A true performance road bike with race-winning DNA, the Cannondale CAAD Optimo 2 bike thrives on the open road and in competition. It's built for speed, handling and durability.
- Lightweight SmartForm C2 alloy frame with full carbon fork
- Premium carbon fork features full carbon fiber construction and a tapered steerer, for ultralow weight and maximum steering precision
- Shimano Tiagra 2 x 10-speed shifting with FSA Omega crankset
- Promax RC-476 dual pivot rim brakes
- Refined tube profiles, precision butting and double-pass welds create frames that are lighter and ride better than competitors' high-ticket alloy offerings
- Elite race geometry is influenced directly from the award-winning CAAD13 bike; CAAD Optimo offers true race handling and optimal body position at all times
- Subtle rack and fender mounts expand versatility for commuting/wet-weather training
- CAAD bikes have always been known for their smooth ride; CAAD Optimo features a newly designed SAVE rear triangle to absorb road chatter for better comfort and control
