Cannondale Advanced Aluminum Design We’re CAAD to the core. It’s in our DNA.

This is high-performance aluminium as it was meant to be.

CAAD14 highlights aluminum’s strengths, enhancing the ride experience in harmony with the material’s natural qualities. Built To Last CAAD14 is built to go the distance.

Built to excite. Warrantied for life. Easy To Own Let’s be real—this bike was built to be ridden hard. That’s all part of the appeal. So, we made it easy to own, with reliable, easy-to-source parts like a threaded BB, UDH, and a 27.2mm seatpost. Which, of course, makes it simple to customize if that’s your thing. Make it your own.
