Aero road2026Gen 5 ↗Disc brakesUCI legal

The middle carbon grade of Cannondale's fifth-generation race bike, launched in February 2026 alongside the LAB71. The Hi-MOD frame shares every tube shape, the Delta steerer, the lowered stack and the geometry of the LAB71 and is built to the same stiffness, at 781 g for a painted size 56 instead of 728 g. It is sold as the SuperSix EVO 1 (SRAM Force AXS, Reserve 57|64 wheels), the lighter EVO 1 SL (Ultegra Di2, Reserve 34|37) and as a frameset, all with the one-piece SystemBar cockpit.

Our verdict

Overall

out of 100, average of 7 categories

The sensible way into the Gen 5 SuperSix EVO: the same shapes, cockpit and geometry as the LAB71 for a 53 g heavier frame and a third less money, with a Force AXS power-meter build on deep Reserve wheels or a 6.8 kg Ultegra Di2 SL. Same Cannondale-only Delta steerer, SystemBar and seatpost, and no mechanical or cheaper options.

Aerodynamics

Manufacturer aero claims
Same frame shapes as the LAB71: yaw-weighted drag 0.003 m² (CdA) lower than the Gen 4 SuperSix EVO, weighted at 40 km/h road speed. Cannondale says it is faster than many pure aero bikes while weighing up to a kilo less.
Testing method
CFD and wind tunnel. Cannondale combines drag-versus-yaw tunnel data with a modelled distribution of on-road yaw angles into one yaw-weighted drag value, and quotes power only with a speed.
Tube profile
Truncated NACA aerofoils, each tube shaped for its own structural and airflow needs; designed with the Gripper Aero bottles and CarbonGrip Aero cages
