  • I hope they bring back the previous supersix platform as a home-serviceable, practical carbon bike. Kind of Aethos like. I managed to pick up a 2019 supersix (last gen) and am not feeling any pull towards the new proprietary, integrated everything.

  • I have a 2020 Supersix (similar to the above) and definitely didn't appreciate how seemingly EVERYTHING is integrated/internally routed and mostly proprietary to Cannondale - looks like servicing it is going to be a bitch. So your decision may be a wise one!

  • The main problem is the seatposts and cable routing, AFAICT. If everyone could accept an aero seatpost standard and didn’t muck around with the stem-spacer-steerer-headtube area, I’d be tempted by a modern superbike. But as they are, I can’t see any of the brands keeping all the bits and pieces in production long once the new models come out. They’re turning into cars.

  • Where exactly is the issue with servicing the all-internal-cabled bike sorry? Considering most of these are electronic or even wireless (Shimano is going wireless too afaik), and I have never had to disassemble any hydraulic brakes just yet on any of my bikes?
    Genuine interest and not taking a piss as I said to myself the only bike I'm upgrading my old Cannondales to is a disc-wireless-fully-integrated 21st century bike.
