Nothing is impassable
The best gravel bike for anything from dirt roads to singletrack trails. With the grip and comfort of the Kingpin suspension, nothing is off-limits.

Where it thrives:
Gravel and Dirt Roads, Rough Pavement, Trails

What it's built for:
Gravel riding, back road exploring, bike packing and off-road adventures

Engineered Simplicity
Low-friction bushing on the Kingpin thru-axle offer smooth action, maintenance-free reliability and over 100 grams of weight savings vs conventional cartridge bearings.

Corner like a Boss

Rail through the rough and come out smiling. Led by our OutFront steering geometry, the Topstone Carbon offers up handling that's serenely stable in the chop, and light & nimble everywhere else.

Kingpin Suspension
Delivering a smooth ride without the added weight and complexity of a shock and links, Kingpin is our answer for the most demanding gravel riders. Whether you need more comfort to go long, more traction to push beyond or more give to take on the tech - Kingpin is the maintenance-free, lightweight answer to your prayers.

Clearance and Compatibility
The new dropped chainstay design lets you run big volume tyres (up to 700x45mm or 27.5x2.1"), all with a standard dish wheel for easy interchangeability.

Tuned for the Rider
Our Proportional Response size-specific construction creates optimal frame stiffness and compliance for each frame size, so that every rider has the ideal ride feel and comfort of Kingpin.

SmartSense Ready
Make every ride better with enhanced visibility and awareness. The SmartSense-ready frame means its easy to upgrade to our system of intelligent running lights and rear-facing radar.

OutFront Steering Geometry
Confident stability meets nimble agility. An extra long fork offset paired with a slack head angle keeps the steering light and lively, yet delivers unreal confidence at speed and in the rough stuff.

Connected
An integrated wheel sensor delivers hyper-accurate speed, route and distance info while you ride, registers your bike, reminds you of needed service and more, all through the free Cannondale App.

Dropper Ready
Built to accept an internally-routed 27.2mm dropper seatpost, which shouldn't really be a surprise on a bike this off-road capable.

Load Up. Roll Out.

With plentiful gear and waterbottle mounts on the frame and fork, Topstone Carbon is ready to load up and go long.
