Cannondale Topstone is the tool that empowers riders to push the boundaries between impassable and fun. With new and improved Kingpin, Topstone offers a complete package that is confident and capable.

Cannodale Press Release

Today, Cannondale is redefining the limits of adventure with a completely refreshed Topstone Carbon. Featuring improved geometry and enhanced, ride-smoothing Kingpin suspension, Topstone Carbon has been redesigned from the ground up to go anywhere and ride everything.
“We designed Topstone Carbon as a tool that does it all,” said Nina Baum, Cannondale Product Manager. “Whether it’s the local singletrack, jumping into your first gravel race, or that overnight bikepacking trip turned transcontinental ride, Topstone begs its rider for new challenges.”

The new Topstone Carbon features Cannondale’s revolutionary Kingpin suspension, built to be 100 grams lighter, more durable, and more streamlined than before. Kingpin absorbs bumps and vibrations without the weight and complexity of shocks or springs by using a thru-axle pivot in the seat tube that allows the entire back of the frame to flex. It’s real suspension where it matters.
In combination with Cannondale’s applied Proportional Response, which ensures that riders of all sizes get the best performance and comfort out of their bike, Kingpin gives every Topstone rider better traction on rough terrain and lets them carve corners with conviction. Additional geometry changes including lower standover and bottom bracket height, add even more confidence to the ride.

Topstone Carbon easily ventures off the beaten path with Cannondale’s award-winning Lefty Oliver, the smoothest, most-precise handling gravel fork in the world. But now, Lefty models come standard with 700c wheels making Topstone journey ready. The bike can accommodate tires up to 45mm, and it can even hold a big 27.5” x 2.1” tire to tackle any surface thrown its way. To make things as easy as possible, Topstone Carbon now comes with a traditional wheel dish and threaded BSA bottom bracket, making it simple to swap for a different wheelset or new cranks. Topstone also has plenty of mounts and a Cannondale StrapRack so you can gear up for roads less traveled.

Topstone Carbon features SmartSense, Cannondale’s intelligent system of lights and radar that actively communicates with the rider, bike, and surroundings, powered by a single battery. It has been made to provide enhanced awareness while also creating heightened visibility so the rider can more effectively see and be seen out on the open road. All Topstone Carbons are SmartSense Ready, and some models come with it already available on the bike.

The all-new Topstone Carbon will be available in sizes XS - XL. Topstone Carbon 1 Lefty and Topstone Carbon 2 Lefty are equipped with Lefty Oliver. SmartSense will be featured on carbon models 1 RLE, 2 L, and 3 L.
