About this product
This Cannondale R700 2.8 Aluminum Triathlon Bike features a 54cm aluminum frame and is equipped with a Shimano 105 groupset offering 16 speeds.

It employs grip shifters for gear changes and has no suspension.
Our take
The Cannondale R700 is a dedicated aluminum triathlon bike, well-suited for a competitive entry. The aluminum frame in a 54cm size is a solid foundation, and the Shimano 105 components, providing 16 speeds, are a reliable choice for performance. It's worth noting the 650C wheel size and tubular tires, which are less common now but can offer distinct ride qualities for some. The aerobars are a crucial addition for triathlon positioning. While grip shifters are present, some riders might prefer a more traditional lever setup. A decent choice for those seeking a value-oriented tri bike.
