The Cannondale CAAD 12 Disc Ultegra road bike is built on a lightweight 6069 duralumin alloy frame. Several technologies and patents that characterize the Cannodale brand are used in the construction of the frame.
One of them is SPEED SAVE, which works primarily through the balance between the rear frame triangle and the fork. The main idea is that the tube on the rear frame triangle is capable of vertical bending and thus absorbs shocks.
Cannondale CAAD 12 Disc Ultegra has a carbon front fork that has advanced dropouts and a specific carbon weave. Together with SPEED SAVE, a micro-suspension system is created, which allows the wheels to better cross rough surfaces, whether when riding in a sitting position or in the saddle.
Not only the construction of the frame is interesting, but also the processing of the material from which the frame is made. This technology is called SmartForm C1 Premium and it is a complex and advanced processing of duralumin. By combining the removal of excess material, optimizing the shape of the tubes, hydroforming, tapering, mechanical forming and forging, the incredible lightness and rigidity of the frame is achieved.
For the Cannondale CAAD 12 Disc Ultegra bicycle frame, attention is paid to every detail, including precise work with the thickness of the tubes and their shape. The material is concentrated exactly where it is needed and at the same time every extra gram of the structure is removed. This maximizes the strength and rigidity of the frame.
The Cannondale CAAD 12 Disc Ultegra road bike is equipped with high- quality Shimano Ultegra components with 2x11 speeds. Shimano components stand out not only for their long service life, but also for shifting accuracy, low weight and perfect workshop processing.
A pair of Shimano R8020 hydraulic disc brakes will give you confidence on the descents, which thanks to the Ice-Tec cooling will keep you going even on long mountain descents and retain their braking effect even in adverse weather conditions.
Cannondale HollowGram Si cranks made with patented 3D technology ensure efficient power transmission. The derailleurs are mounted on a forged duralumin carrier and bring such stiffness and weight that they surpass Shimano Dura-Ace, but at the price of Ultegra.
Fast acceleration will be supported by light and reliable long-lasting Mavic Aksium Disc Centerlock wheels, entwined on steel aero spokes with light aluminum hubs with high-quality industrial bearings.
You can also rely on Schwalbe Lugano Folding 700x25c tires , which excel in universal use.
The Cannondale CAAD 12 Disc Ultegra road bike will satisfy riders with racing ambitions who are looking for a bike with a frame that is lighter, stiffer, yet more comfortable than most carbon frames, and equipped with quality components, including effective brakes that will hold them in any conditions.

Carbon frame
Lightweight, stiff and at the same time still flexible material that absorbs shocks well and increases comfort. A higher price is to be expected.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Reliable in all conditions, better modulation of the braking effect with the use of less force on the lever. Heavier weight, more demanding service.

All bicycles at the MTBIKER shop are new, not-ridden, from an official distributor and with a full warranty. Several brands even offer a lifetime warranty on the frame after registration. We perform all warranty services in MTBIKER stores after personal delivery or after sending the bike (or its part) by courier.
- The bicycle is taken out of the manufacturer's box
- The bicycle is assembled, inspected and adjusted (front and rear derailleur, shock, fork, wheels,...)
- The bicycle is carefully packed back into a box and shipped
- If you order a bicycle for in store pick up or home delivery, the bicycle will be waiting put together, checked and ready to use for you.
- If you order a bicycle via courier to your home address, the following must be done at home:
- Take the bike out of the box and carefully remove safety material and foils
- Mount handlebar to stem (1 minute, 4 or 5 mm hex hey is needed).
- Mount front wheel to fork (1 minute, without the need of any tools if the bike has a quick release).
- Loosen the screws in the headset, straighten the stem with the front wheel, tighten the upper screw on the fork and then tighten the headset (2 minutes, 4 or 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Mount the pedals to the cranks while lubricating the thread and carefully mounting it the right way (1 minute, 8 mm hex key or 15 mm wrench).
- Mount seatpost to frame (10 seconds, without needing any tools if the frame has a quick link).
- Inflate the tyres or fork and shock to desired pressure (2 minutes, pump needed).
- Check the tightening of hex keys and quick-releases (2 minutes, 4 and 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Go for a test drive! Handle your bicycle carefully until you get used to it. If the bike has disc brakes, their performance will be limited from now on - they will gain their full power after 4-5 strong brakes at higher speed.
