INFORMATION

About This Supplement

Cannondale Owner’s Manual Supplements

provide important model specic safety,

maintenance, and technical information. They

are not replacements for your Cannondale

Bicycle Owner’s Manual.

This supplement may be one of several for

your bike. Be sure to obtain and read all of

them.

If you need a manual or supplement, or have a

question about your bike, please contact your

Cannondale Dealer immediately, or call us at

one of the telephone numbers listed on the

back cover of this manual.

You can download Adobe Acrobat PDF

versions of any Cannondale Owner’s Manuals

or Supplements from our website: http://www.

• This manual is not a comprehensive

safety or service manual for your bike.

• This manual does not include assembly

instructions for your bike.

• All Cannondale bikes must be completely

assembled and inspected for proper

operation by a Cannondale Dealer before

delivery to the owner.

WARNING

This supplement may include procedures

beyond the scope of general mechanical

aptitude.

Special tools, skills, and knowledge may

be required. Improper mechanical work

increases the risk of an accident. Any

bicycle accident has risk of serious injury,

paralysis or death. To minimize risk

we strongly recommend that owners

always have mechanical work done by an

authorized Cannondale retailer.

WARNING

IMPORTANT COMPOSITES MESSAGE

Your bike is made from composite materials

also known as “carbon ber.”.

All riders must understand a fundamental

reality of composites. Composite materials

constructed of carbon bers are strong

and light, but when crashed or overloaded,

carbon bers do not bend, they break.

For your safety, as you own and use the

bike, you must follow proper service,

maintenance, and inspection of all the

composites (frame, stem, fork, handlebar,

seat post, etc.) Ask your Cannondale Dealer

for help.

We urge you to read PART II, Section D.

“Inspect For Safety” in your Cannondale

Bicycle Owner’s Manual BEFORE you ride.

YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED,

PARALYZED OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT

IF YOU IGNORE THIS MESSAGE.

Intended Use

The intended use of your bike or frameset is

CONDITION 1 / HIGH PERFORMANCE ROAD.

For riding on

pavement

only

CONDITION 1 / HIGH-PERFORMANCE ROAD

bikes and framesets are designed for riding

on a paved surface where the tires do not lose

ground contact. They are not intended to be

ridden o-road, cyclocross, or touring with

racks or panniers.

Material use is optimized to deliver both

light weight and specic performance. You

must understand that (1) these types of bikes

are intended to give an aggressive racer or

competitive cyclist a performance advantage

over a relatively short product life, (2) a less

aggressive rider will enjoy longer frame life, (3)

you are choosing light weight (shorter frame

life) over more frame weight and a longer

frame life, (4) you are choosing light weight

over more dent resistant or rugged frames

that weigh more. All frames that are very

light need frequent inspection for cracks that

would indicate that the frame is worn out from

fatigue. These frames are likely to be damaged

or broken in a crash. They are not designed to

take abuse or be a rugged workhorse.

WARNING

UNDERSTAND YOUR BIKE AND ITS

INTENDED USE. CHOOSING THEWRONG

BICYCLE FOR YOUR PURPOSE CAN BE

HAZARDOUS. USING YOUR BIKE THE

WRONG WAY IS DANGEROUS.

Industry usage Conditions 1 - 5 are

generalized and evolving. Consult your

Cannondale Dealer about how you intend

to use your bike.

Please read your Cannondale Bicycle

Owner’s Manual for more information

about Intended Use and Conditions 1-5.

Building Up A Frameset

Before building up a frameset, consult with

your Cannondale Dealer and the component

manufacturers, and discuss your riding style,

ability, weight, and interest in and patience for

maintenance.

Make sure the components chosen are

compatible with your bike and intended for

your weight and riding style.

Generallyspeaking,lighterweightcomponents

have shorter lives. In selecting lightweight

components, you are making a trade-o,

favoring the higher performance that comes

with less weight over longevity. If you choose

more lightweight components, you must

inspect them more frequently. If you are a

heavier rider or have a rough, abusive or“go for

it” riding style, buy heavy duty components.

Readand followthe componentmanufacturers

warnings and instructions.

Protect From

Extreme Temperatures

• Protect your carbon bike from extreme

temperatures when storing or transporting it.

• Allow your bike to cool o or warm up before

you ride

• Do not store your bike in places where the

temperature will exceed 66.5C° (150°F). For

example, do not leave your bike lying at in

a black pickup truck bed in the desert sun or

under the glass of a hatchback auto.

Bike Stands

The clamping jaws of ordinary bike stand can

generate a crushing force strong enough to

seriously damage and ruin your bike frame.

CAUTION

SERIOUS FRAME DAMAGE:

DO NOT USE STANDS THAT CLAMP TO THE

FRAME OR SEAT POST.

USE A STAND THAT RELIES ON SUPPORTING

THE BOTTOM BRACKET AND DROPOUTS.

Inspection & Crash

Damage of Carbon Frames

WARNING

AFTER A CRASH OR IMPACT:

Inspect frame carefully for damage (See

PART II, Section D. Inspect For Safety in your

Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s Manual.)

Do not ride your bike if you see any sign

of damage, such as broken, splintered, or

delaminated carbon ber.

ANY OF THE FOLLOWING MAY INDICATE

A DELAMINATION OR DAMAGE:

An unusual or strange feel to the frame

Carbon which has a soft feel or altered

shape

Creaking or other unexplained noises,

Visible cracks, a white or milky color present

in carbon ber section

Continuing to ride a damaged frame

increases the chances of frame failure,

with the possibility of injury or death of

the rider.

Repainting Or Renishing

You should not paint over the existing ﬁnish,

reﬁnish or repaint your bike. The carbon ﬁber

composites making up the frame are held

together by some extremely strong bonding

chemicals. However, these bonds can be

attacked or weakened by paint stripping or

reﬁnishing chemicals.

WARNING

Repainting, painting over, retouching, or

renishing your frame or fork can result in

severe damage leading to an accident. You

can be severely injured, paralyzed or killed.

Renishing chemicals : Solvents, and

strippers can attack, weaken, or destroy

the important composite chemical bonds

holding your frame together.

Using abrasives or sanding the frame/fork

structure, original paint, decals, or coatings

through the use of mechanical actions

such as plastic or glass bead blasting or

other abrasive methods such as sanding

or scraping can remove frame material or

weaken it.

cable routing

The rear and front derailleur cables exiting the

down tube (2) are routed through the bottom

bracket cable guide (3).

The top tube guide is removable so that brake

cable may be routed inside the tube. The guide

is secured in the tube opening by the installed

brake cable tension. Make sure the guide is

seated properly in the top tube opening when

installing and connecting the rear brake.

Be sure to use a ferrules on housing ends.

When installing cables, make sure ferrule is seated

inside frame opening correctly.

Saddle Position and Angle

The seat post can be congured to place the saddle in a TRIATHLON or TIME TRIAL position.

Please see “Changing Saddle Position” on pages 9 and 10. The water bottle cage bracket parts

can only be used with saddle in the TRIATHLON position (shown above). Two water bottle cages

may be mounted on the sides of the seat post, or a single cage can be mounted on the back.

Saddle angle can be adjusted by rotating the upper saddle clamp 180°. The change is 3° per

groove. If the upper saddle clamp orientation is reversed 180°, saddle adjustment range will

change ±1.5° in relation to 0° , again with 3° of change per groove. Ask a professional bike

mechanic to show you how this works.

120849.PDF

80mm Minimum Insert

The minimum insert depth that the seat post must be inserted into the frame is 80mm. Seat

posts are permanently marked with ‘MINIMUM INSERT” line 80mm up from the bottom of an

un-cut seat post.

Cutting the Seat Post

In some frames (especially smaller sizes), a seat post will only be able to be inserted into a seat tube

to a maximum depth of 100 mm. Below a depth of 100mm carbon material can interfere with the

seat post. The material can not be removed.

The full length of the seat post can be cut down to have sucient adjustment range. The minimum

insertion depth requirement of 80mm does not change. 80mm should be marked from the bottom

of a cut seat post. The seat post may be cut (shortened). A new “MINIMUM INSERT” line 80mm

from the bottom of the post must be marked or indicated without scoring, scratching or

otherwise damaging the surface of the seat post. Use a thin decal (automotive pin striping) or

permanent marker.

WARNINGS

TO AVOID SERIOUS SEAT POST OR FRAME DAMAGE:

1. After any crash, fall, or impact, remove and inspect the seat post for damage (e.g., cracks,

scratches, scrapes, gouges, splintering). If damage is found, do not ride it; discard it.

Replace the seat post with a new one.

2. Do not use solvents, or chemical spray cleaners to clean.

3. Never force a seat post into the seat tube.

4. Use a good torque wrench to tighten fasteners to the specied torque. Correct tightening

torque of the seat post clamp and the bolts that hold the saddle to the seat post is also

very important to your safety. Always tighten seat post to saddle clamp bolts to the correct

torque. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move,

fatigue and fracture. Either mistake can lead to a sudden failure of these bolts. Such a

failure may lead to an accident, with risk of serious injury, paralysis or death.

5. If the seat post requires cutting, have it done by a professional bike mechanic with

experience cutting high-performance carbon components.

YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED, PARALYZED OR KILLED IF YOUR IGNORE THESE

WARNINGS.
