The fastest, most comfortable, and most manageable high-end aluminum race bike on the planet.
In competition, on roads
Speed, agility, handling
CAAD13 is the ultimate alloy race machine. With exceptional efficiency and superb handling.
The integrated wheel sensor tracks your activity (such as speed, distance, and calories burned), logs your bike, reminds you if it needs maintenance, and much more, all through the Cannondale app.
For nearly four decades, our innovative CAAD bikes have set the standard for high-end aluminum frames. And the CAAD13 has set it higher than ever. It is the most advanced and highest-performing aluminum road bike we’ve ever created. The 13 is simply the atomic number of aluminum.
Cannondale forged its legacy in aluminum. The SmartForm C1 Premium of the CAAD13 is the lightest and most sophisticated aluminum frame available.
The frame features aerodynamic tubes that offer the same weight and equal or superior stiffness compared to round tubes, but reduce wind resistance by up to 30%.
Smoother than ever. CAAD bikes have always been known for their surprising ride smoothness. The CAAD13 is even smoother, thanks to the new SAVE rear triangle, the integrated seatpost clamp, and the newly designed KNØT 27 seatpost.
The new frame design provides ample clearance for significantly wider tires. It comfortably fits 30mm tires, achieving new levels of comfort and performance on all types of surfaces.
Speed Release axles allow for faster and easier wheel changes. They are also compatible with most current wheel standards.
Fully prepared for fenders. A removable fender bridge between the stays is there when you need it and easily removable when you don’t.
