    The Cannondale CAAD10 5 Compact bike redefines possibility with super-lightweight aluminum performance on the road that easily challenges even the fastest carbon ride.

    • 6069 aluminum CAAD10 frame offers responsive stiffness with remarkable weight savings
    • Specially designed top tube uses an hour-glass shape to ensure knee clearance and increase stiffness
    • Butted and shaped seatstays and chainstays reduce lateral flex and make bumps in the road less jarring
    • Lightweight carbon fork supplies exceptional handling, slicing through corners and damping high frequency road vibrations
    • Shimano 105 derailleurs and shifters pair with the FSA Gossamer Pro crankset for unbridled power and precise shifts
    • FSA BB30 bottom bracket design improves stiffness and increases power efficiency through all 20 gears
    • Tektro R580 dual-pivot caliper brakes help save weight and maintain reliable braking performance
    • Shimano RS10 wheelset is decked out with fast Schwalbe Lugano tires for excellent handling and speed
    • Cockpit is outfitted with a Cannondale C3 compact handlebar and a carbon-wrapped seatpost that's topped with a Prologo Kappa saddle
    • Pedals are not included
    • Cannondale CAAD10 5 Compact bike specs are subject to change

    After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100 - 200 mi. of riding or after the first 2 months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

        Comments about Cannondale CAAD10 5 Compact Bike - 2012:

        Disclaimer: I didn't buy my bike from REI, I bought it from a local bike shop cause they had my size and they threw in some extras (pedals & computer) cause I've done some other business with them in the past.

        Yes I know they don't make Cannondales by hand in PA like they did when I bought my previous bikes and I also know they are owned by doral group now and they weld them in the same factory in Taiwan where they build the other doral group bikes, but this thing is still fast and light and flies. Yes you can buy a full carbon from some other companies for about the same price (Felt), but this bike is just as light and just as quick as those sub $2,000 carbon bikes. The 105 group is great for my cycling level. My dad has Ultegra and it's better, but not $1000 better. His bike is also full carbon and its lighter, but not a lot lighter. The brakes are Tektro instead of Shimano but they work fine for road bike brakes. The Shimano RS10 wheels are OK, but you can upgrade over time and still be better off than buying a low-end carbon bike in my opinion, and you still have spent about the same amount of money and have better wheels.

        My only con might be that on my older (late 90's) Cannondale (which prouldy states "Handmade in the USA") the welds are seamless. It looks like the bike was stamped out of one piece of aluminum instead of tubes joined together. One this bike, the welds are much more noticeable. It's not a deal breaker by any measure but takes a little away from the pride of ownership. I guess that's just the way it is now that times are tougher and everyone needs to cut costs.
