Cannondale SuperX

The SuperX has lived two lives. Originally launched in 2016 as Cannondale's premier cyclocross race bike, it dominated UCI cyclocross courses under riders like Stephen Hyde and Caroline Mani through 2018-2020 with its asymmetric SAVE rear stays and OutFront geometry (long front-centre, short stays for stability). When the gravel race scene exploded around 2020-2022, Cannondale temporarily shelved the SuperX in favour of the SuperSix EVO SE (a gravel-ified road bike). For model year 2025 the SuperX was relaunched as a dedicated gravel race bike — same name and racing DNA, but completely new design with aero tube shaping, 700x48mm rear / 700x51mm front tyre clearance, mount points for bags and toptube storage, and the in-frame StashMount system. The Lab71 flagship (€14,999, ~900g frame) is hand-laid in Cannondale's Bedford, PA prototype shop. The 2025 relaunch made the SuperX both cyclocross-capable and gravel-race-optimised, allowing Cannondale to retire the SuperSix EVO CX (dedicated cyclocross) entirely.
