The carbon frameset uses Cannondale’s Kingpin suspension system, a simple pivot-driven design that adds controlled flex through the rear triangle. It’s not a shock or linkage, but it takes the edge off repeated bumps and keeps the bike composed when the surface changes quickly.Proportional Response construction tailors the frame’s feel to each size, so stiffness and compliance remain balanced whether you ride a smaller or larger frame. Clearance for wide gravel tyres, multiple gear and bottle mounts and a threaded BSA bottom bracket make it practical for big days out and multi-surface rides. The StashPort downtube storage lets you carry tools or small essentials neatly inside the frame.Up front, the matching carbon fork keeps handling steady, with a 55mm OutFront offset helping stability at speed while keeping steering lively enough for twisty trails. Triple mounts, internal routing and fender compatibility give you options to set the bike up your way.SRAM’s Rival XPLR AXS wireless groupset provides the simplicity of electronic shifting with a 1x drivetrain aimed at gravel riding. The 10–46 cassette works well with the 40T chainring, offering range for steep tracks and steady cruising alike. Hydraulic Rival AXS brakes bring predictable stopping power in mixed conditions.Reserve 40|44 GR carbon wheels use a depth-matched front and rear design to balance stability, comfort and speed. Laced to DT Swiss 370 hubs with Sapim CX-Ray spokes, they feel responsive without being harsh. WTB’s Vulpine 45c tyres add grip and cushioning, rolling quickly on smoother sections but still biting into looser surfaces.A Cannondale SAVE carbon seatpost and flared Easton EA70 AX bars round out a cockpit made for comfort and control on long rides. The integrated wheel sensor links to the Cannondale App, giving accurate ride data and service reminders.The Topstone Carbon 1 AXS feels at home when the route mixes smooth ground with broken tracks and rough gravel, offering a calm, predictable ride with the tech to make exploring feel natural.
