I know I know it's weird the way they do it, but they also do steerers that you hammer in to the headset bearings with a hammer...crank axles that need to be frozen before fitting, their own crank extractor tooling, single sided struts not forks, concept bikes with inline skate wheels....
don't want weird shiz? Don't buy a Cannondale.
