HANDLEBAR
The bar and stem add to the aero advantages, though a stopper does limit the turning angle – though you’d never need to twist past this point
TYRES
There’s space for 30mm rubber, but this model comes with 25mm tyres – the Vittoria Rubino Pro rubber impressed us
CHAINSET
This women’s build comes with a 50/34 compact chainset and widespread of gears, the unisex model features a semi-compact 52/36 chainset
The SuperSix Evo has always been a race bike, and there’s no chance of that changing. However, with Cannondale’s launch of the SystemSix aero model, it has taken on a slightly more ‘all-round’ position.
The SuperSix Evo family is split into standard and Hi-Mod models. The difference is the carbon used: Hi-Mod is stiffer and lighter (also more expensive). By comparison, the standard carbon on the model we have on test here is heavier; don’t write it off though, because that comes with more compliance.
The frame shape of the entire SuperSix Evo family was dramatically altered with the launch of the 2020 models, and this 2021 SuperSix Evo is built around an identical chassis. Gone are the high and slender seat stays and traditional round tubes that the SuperSix was so renowned for; these have been replaced by the clinical aerodynamic shapes that every brand with access to wind tunnel testing tells us is the most efficient. Cannondale PROS & CONS claims that the truncated aerofoil shapes represent up to a 30 per cent saving in drag.
