SuperSix EVO

The SuperSix EVO lineup is split across three carbon frame tiers: the standard carbon, the lighter Hi-Mod, and the premium Series 0 carbon found on the Lab71 models. The Lab71 and Hi-Mod frames share identical geometry but use more advanced layups to shed weight.

At the top of the range, the Lab71 and Lab71 Team builds feature flagship electronic groupsets, with the standard Lab71 including a SRAM Red AXS power meter and a CeramicSpeed bottom bracket. The Hi-Mod 1 and Hi-Mod 2 models step down slightly in frame material but retain high-end electronic shifting and Cannondale’s integrated SystemBar R-One carbon cockpit. The Hi-Mod 1 also includes a 4iiii power meter on its Dura-Ace crankset.

The standard carbon models, numbered 1 through 6, offer the most accessible entry points. The 1, 2, and 3 builds feature electronic shifting from SRAM and Shimano, while the 4 and 6 builds utilize Shimano 105 mechanical 12-speed groupsets. Wheel specifications scale with the price, ranging from 50mm-deep HollowGram carbon wheelsets on the upper tiers to basic DT Swiss or Maddux alloy rims on the entry-level models. Across all builds, the frame clears up to a 30mm tire, though many ship with 25mm or 28mm rubber.

Reviewers consistently praise the SuperSix EVO for its exceptional handling and high-speed stability, noting that Cannondale wisely left the geometry untouched. On the road, the bike delivers a "sublime balance of speed, agility and composure" (BikeRadar), allowing riders to push hard into technical descents without feeling nervous. The steering is frequently described as intuitive, with the chassis proving highly capable of holding a tight line through fast corners.

While the frame is undeniably fast, some testers noted a slight shift in its acceleration profile. The front end is not the absolute stiffest in the category, which translates to a "less snappy sense of acceleration" (Escape Collective) during out-of-the-saddle sprints. However, this slight reduction in rigidity keeps the front tire tracking predictably over broken pavement.

Comfort is generally regarded as excellent for a pure race bike, though the deeper aero seatpost can transmit more feedback than the previous generation. Multiple reviewers pointed out that the stock 25mm tires on many builds limit the bike's potential, suggesting that upgrading to wider rubber transforms the ride. Ultimately, the consensus points to a highly efficient machine that is "fast enough for racing but it’s also comfortable enough for long rides" (Rouleur).
