TECHNOLOGIES
Elite Race Geometry
Unlike much of the competition at these price points, the CAAD10 is a thoroughbred racer. Its geometry is
virtually identical to our SuperSix EVO for razor-sharp cornering and aggressive race positioning.
SmartFormed 6069 Alloy Construction
With a frame that weights just 1150 grams, SmartFormed construction used in the CAAD10 relies on the
most advanced aluminum manufacturing in the world. A complex mix of hydroforming, mechanical
shaping, taper-butting, double-pass smooth welding and heat treating produce a frame that is both lighter
and stronger.
SPEED SAVE Stays
The flattened shape and internal butting of the CAAD10’s seat stays and chain stays allow them to flex vertically, but stay stiff laterally and torsionally. This lets the rear wheel track the ground, improving speed, cornering, grip and comfort.
SPEED SAVE Fork
This 360 gram fork features an 1-1/8”to 1-1/4” tapered steerer for the best balance of weight and stiffness, and offset dropouts, which allow for more fork angle and compliance without affecting handling. The SPEED SAVE fork is tuned to work with the SPEED SAVE stays as a micro-suspension system.
Delta Seat Tube
The 27.2 compatible seat tube is laterally ovalized at the BB for great lateral stiffness.
