CANNONDALE CAAD Optimo Claris Men Road Bike 2019
Features
- WHERE PERFORMANCE BEGINS
- The CAAD Optimo is the perfect gateway bike. With features and geometry derived directly from the mighty CAAD12, its race-bred performance and welcoming price will get you hooked on cycling in no time.
- CAAD Optimo is CAAD12’s overachieving little brother. With trickle-down tech and geometry, it makes a killer first performance road bike, or great training/backup bike for EVO/CAAD12 owners.
- EXCEPTIONAL ALUMINIUM PERFORMANCE
- Created using our Tube Flow Modeling design process, CAAD Optimo’s SmartForm C2 Aluminium construction is lighter and has a better ride-feel than many of our competitors’ premium alloy offerings.
- ELITE RACE GEOMETRY
- With similar geometry to the CAAD12 and SuperSix EVO, CAAD Optimo offers riders true race handling and body position.
- RIDE SMOOTHER WITH SAVE
- Flex zones in the rear triangle and fork absorb shock for better comfort and control.
- FULL CARBON FORKS
- For 2019, all CAAD Optimo models feature new, lightweight forks with full, onepiece carbon construction from dropout thru steerer.
