The US is very proud of our greatest bike company, Cannondale, and BioWheels is proud to represent Cannondale! They have been hand building world-class racing bikes with American talent since 1971, and they were the American originators of large-scale bicycle racing sponsorship on the road & dirt. Cannondale’s Regional Manager, Charles Stanley, puts it this way:

“We are a company of innovation and setting trends. We were the 1^st American bike company to sponsor a European team (Saeco) and race in the Tour de France. We also set the trend for big-budget mountain bike teams with Volvo/Cannondale. We have brought unknown riders to the forefront of the sport. Mario Cippolini, Missy Giove, Alison Syder, Anne Caroline Chaunson, and Tinker Jaurez, to name a few…Our research and development department is testing well above industry standards to insure that the bikes and the parts we put on them will exceed all racer and customers expectations. Whether you ride road or mountain you will be faster on a Cannondale. That is our purpose!”

You owe it to yourself to check out one of these bikes:

On the road, the Cannondale Synapse series bikes are built for comfort while still light, making them well-suited for training in the mountains. Many BioWheels racers utilize the Cannondale CAAD9 bikes for their stiffness & lightweight. The cutting edge Cannondale SystemSix technology melds an alluminum rear triangle with carbon main tubes - “The result is the lightest, stiffest, most explosive bike we’ve ever made”. The Cannondale SuperSix is the full-carbon result of 20 years of pro peloton racing!

On the dirt, the Cannondale Scalpel XC race bike is redesigned for 2008 - “More travel, lighter, stiffer”. the Cannondale Rush is a great endurance racing & riding machine. The Cannondale Prophet is an ideal do-it-all rig for the trails of Western NC and beyond. with full-suspension mountain bikes starting at just $1379 for 2008, you just need to chose how much travel you want. Their hard tails are still among the best in the business. From the race-ready Cannondale Taurine, to the awesome Cannondale 29′er Caffeine series, it’s obvious that this company has figured out some things!

BioWheels-Asheville has access to Cannondale’s entire line of handbuilt bikes, but we focus our inventory on the best for WNC. Stop by for a test ride. We usually have a demo bike available.
