BallisTec Carbon Technology
Light, stiff and ultra-tough carbon fiber construction.
New, High-Strength, High-Impact Carbon construction. Ultra high-strength fibers developed by the Japanese
Military for ballistic armor, and impact-resistant hot melt resins are used as the primary structural materials
of the frame, while high modulus carbon fibers are used to strategically enhance stiffness. Lighter and stiffer
than aluminum, stronger and more durable than steel, BallisTec Carbon can shake off rock strikes and impacts
that would cripple the competition and their carbon “shields”.
SmartFormed Alloy
The alloy versions use SmartFormed, septuple-butted, heat-treated 6000 series aluminum. The down tube
alone has seven different wall thicknesses, created by butting the tube along its length, then mechanically
shaping the tube, then hydro forming it into the final shape. Labor intensive and difficult, it shows
Cannondale’s continued mastery of the aluminum arts.

Integrated Headtube
Both frame types feature integrated Si bearing cups. In alloy frames, the cups are machined within the head
tube. In carbon models, cups are bonded within the head tube. Cannondale Headshok System Integration
bearings are accepted directly into both type. For 1.5” and 1 1/8” adapter headsets, see Replacement Parts.
NOTICE
Do not face, surface, or cut the head tube bearing cups.
When removing adapters, bearings, or cup from, extra
care must be used so that the tool used to drive out the
bearing is not located on any part a bonded cup.
