With its custom Lefty fork and fat and fast-rolling 650 x 42c tires, Cannondale Slate Apex 1 bike is a road machine with serious off-road chops, so you can go from pavement to gravel to singletrack.
Features
  • A full-tilt road bike with legitimate off-road chops, the Slate brings a whole new dimension of hard-cornering, curb-hopping, trail-shredding fun to the concept of road-riding
  • Massive 42c tires on 650b wheels give you the same rollout diameter as a 700 x 23c wheel for proper road-bike speed, but with unreal cornering grip, traction and comfort
  • Geometry with short chainstays give it snappy quickness, while a slack head angle and long front-center keep things stable for off-road excursions
  • With the big-volume tires, plush SAVE rear triangle and Lefty Oliver suspension fork, the Slate is magically smooth over bumps and chatter
  • Despite its burly look, it weighs less than a kilo more than comparable road bikes, and it carries speed like a traditional (but bizarrely smooth) road bike
  • Pedals sold separately; specs and images are subject to change
