Welcoming gravel riders, adventure seekers and daily commuters to the roads less travelled - Cannondale presents the Topstone 4. This versatile gravel road bike is built to explore horizons and accelerate your commute, offering a highly capable ride over gravel, out in the elements, or on your everyday routes to work. As a statement in the world of gravel bikes, it offers exceptional traction, handling and comfort, with a design that combines lightweight efficiency, durability, and user-friendly adaptability.

Cannondale Topstone 4: A Deep Dive into Its Features

The Topstone 4's frame is crafted from lightweight SmartForm C2 Alloy, a strong but lightweight material offering great ride quality and longevity. The bike incorporates a carbon fork that not only absorbs ride vibrations for a more comfortable ride but adds three mounting bosses on each leg for cargo capacity and easy fender attachment.

The Topstone 4 employs a straightforward, reliable microSHIFT Advent X, a wide-range 10-speed group, providing a large gear range that caters to hilly commutes and gnarly off-road climbs. The bike also features powerful disc brakes for controlled stopping in all weather conditions.

Riding the Topstone 4: An Experience Like No Other

Riding the Topstone 4 on gravel trails or the urban jungle is a thrilling experience. Its generous 45mm tire clearance lets you tackle anything from loose gravel to hardcore singletrack, with the confidence that your grip and comfort won't let you down. The large tire clearance also provides excellent stability and control, letting you shred paths less travelled with utmost confidence.

Cannondale's OutFront Steering Geometry gives you the best of both worlds: stability when you're hammering down the descents thanks to a slack head angle, and agile handling when you're climbing or navigating twisty trails. This is because of the extra-long fork offset, ensuring the steering remains light and lively, yet supremely confident at speed.

Technical Specifications of the Cannondale Topstone 4

The Topstone 4's drivetrain is integrated with a microSHIFT Advent X 10-speed rear derailleur and shifters for seamless and dependable gear shifts. It uses a KMC X10 chain and a Prowheel Charm 40T crank, along with microSHIFT 11-48, 10-speed rear cogs, catering to a wide variety of terrain scenarios. All of these components work in perfect harmony to deliver a punchy and responsive off-road performance.

The braking system uses Promax Render R 160/160mm mechanical disc brakes that provide sufficient stopping power, offering peace of mind during those challenging trail descents or busy city commutes. The wheels run on stainless steel 14g spokes and Formula alloy hubs with 12x100mm on the front and 12x142mm on the rear, providing strength and durability to withstand varied riding situations. They're wrapped in 700x37c WTB Riddler Comp tires (with Vittoria Terreno Dry tires for Europe/UK) to give you that essential balance of speed, traction, and adaptability.

Comfort and performance go hand-in-hand for the Topstone 4. For a comfortable drop position without compromising control, Cannondale 3 butted 6061 Alloy handlebars are utilized. They're wrapped in a 3.5mm Cannondale Bar Tape, ensuring that even after long days of adventure, your hands remain comfortable.
