If you know, you know. And if you know...this one’s for you.  CAAD14 is here. The latest evolution of the aluminum revolution that we started back in 1983 is here to reclaim the throne and bring back the thrill of true high-performance alloy road bikes. Sure. Carbon bikes dominate most of the racing scene now, and for good reason. Carbon fiber is amazing stuff. But well-crafted aluminum has an aliveness, an urgency, a vibe, that nothing else can match. Honed from our decades of experience building groundbreaking alloy frames, CAAD14 wears its aluminum-ness like a badge of honor. It’s not trying to be some price-point imitation of carbon, it’s playing to its strengths as a material. It’s a celebration of what we love about aluminum and a return to the performance roots we planted: big tubes, smooth welds, clean lines, an aggressive stance. Stiffness, explosiveness, and razor sharp handling. It’s engaging and raw, like a streetfighter poet. It doesn’t care what people think. It’s not interested in following trends or showing off at the coffee shop or taking it easy. It lives to get after it, mix it up in the corners, dance away on the climbs, and dive under fools on the descents. It’s beautiful and refined, but in a pared-down, purposeful way. Light and lean. No frills, no fluff, yet wholly modern. It’s aluminum as aluminum was meant to be. CAAD14 is a return to form for CAAD road bikes, a statement of intent, and a full-on celebration of the 13th element.
It’s not for everyone, but for those who get it, nothing else will do.

Not Carbon. Not Sorry.
CAAD14 delivers the ride that made Cannondale famous – the perfect blend of smooth and snappy. Explosive, immediate and alive, with razor sharp handling and instinctive response, CAAD14 is built to take the inside line, crush town line sprints, and dance away on climbs.

Raw Performance
The classic frame silhouette offers a unique aesthetic, staying true to the material instead of trying to mimic carbon shapes. CAAD14 highlights aluminum’s strengths, enhancing the ride experience in harmony with the material’s natural qualities.

Cannondale Advanced Aluminum Design
We’re CAAD to the core. It’s in our DNA. We’ve been pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with aluminum longer than anyone, and with CAAD14, we’ve taken all those decades of experience, all the learnings, all the Grand Tour wins and World Championships, and distilled them into something special. This is high-performance aluminum as it was meant to be.
