| 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, measured with the SystemBar cockpit that these builds don't get. | KTM says every detail was refined in the wind tunnel; no figures published. |
| 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. | — |
