Cannondale is a global designer, developer and manufacturer of high performance bicycles, apparel and accessories with a strong reputation for continuous innovation and quality. Cannondale has always been at the forefront of bicycle innovation and quality. Their designs are proven in professional competition so that every machine, whether for racing, commuting or cruising, on road or off, is the very best. Cannondale builds, tests and rebuilds, to make their bicycles and accessories better and better. And they never settle for good enough.
The Cannondale product-creation process starts and ends with the bicycle rider. In some cases it may be a world-class athlete capable of topping the world's most prestigious podiums or your ordinary bicycle rider who just enjoys pedaling for leisure. Nonetheless, every detail is scrutinized to make the best bicycle possible for that rider. Cannondale's goal is to exceed expectations, each and every time.
Cannondale is obsessed with their testing as well. They have invested in a multi-million-dollar Experimental Stress Analysis Laboratory facility based in Bedford, Pennsylvania, which is the largest of its kind in the industry. Here bicycles and components go through several important safety analyses including fatigue testing, maximum-load testing, function-evaluation testing and internal and external test riding. This rigorous testing ensures that besides the fantastic ride, every Cannondale bicycle will provide a lifetime of enjoyment as well.
