Cannondale has reintroduced the SuperX name, now focusing on gravel racing. The new 2025 SuperX boasts a lightweight frame weighing under 900g and features aerodynamic design, comfort enhancements, and ample tyre clearance. It replaces both the SuperSix EVO SE gravel bike and SuperSix EVO CX cyclocross bike.
Old name… new bikes as SuperX moniker returns to take over from the SuperSix EVO SE and CX as Cannondale ’s off-road race bike; lightest frame weigh is sub-900g Cannondale has introduced a new SuperX, this new 2025 version of what was their range topping cyclo-cross bike returns as a stripped-back gravel race platform with the lowest frame weights below 900g. The design team says the new bike is 1.
Cannondale says that it based its aero assessments of the SuperX on speeds of 35 km/h because average speeds in gravel races are slower than on the road . It says that its notional rider could hold 35 km/h on a SuperX while putting out less power than would be required to ride at the same speed on a Cannondale SuperSix EVO SE – lower by 1.6 watts.
Cannondale also says that what it calls “Proportional Response carbon construction” means that ride characteristics are the same across all frame sizes. As mentioned, Cannondale sees the SuperX as in many ways a development of the SuperSix EVO SE gravel bike, but it’s also keen to emphasise links with previous SuperX incarnations.
Steve Smith says, “If it ain't broke, don't fix it. On the new Super X, we're utilising the same trusted geometry. It was controversial when it was first introduced to the cyclocross world, but we now feel this is perfectly suited to gravel racing, so it's the same geometry you know and love.” As a gravel race bike, the SuperX doesn’t have the mounts you’ll find on all-rounders like the Topstone and Topstone Carbon. There are top tube bag mounts, but that’s yer lot. A neat little cover means they’re virtually invisible when not in use. If you switch from 2x to 1x gearing, you can remove the front derailleur mount for a cleaner look.
