Cannondale Topstone Carbon LTD Lefty AXS Overview

Cannondale Topstone Carbon LTD Lefty AXS is a premium gravel bike built with a Topstone Carbon frame, Kingpin rear suspension, Lefty Oliver Carbon 40mm suspension fork, SRAM Force AXS controls, SRAM XO Eagle AXS Transmission rear derailleur, and Reserve 40 I 44 GR Carbon wheels. The frame includes Proportional Response construction, downtube StashPort storage, internal cable routing, 12x142mm thru-axle, 27.2 dropper post readiness, UDH, BSA 68mm threaded bottom bracket, flat mount disc setup, removable fender bridge, and multiple gear and bottle mounts.

The drivetrain combines SRAM Force AXS shifters with a SRAM XO Eagle AXS Transmission rear derailleur, SRAM XO Transmission Flattop 12-speed chain, SRAM Force XPLR 42T crank, and SRAM XS-1275 Eagle Transmission 10-52 12-speed cassette. This wireless mullet-style drivetrain gives the bike a large gear range for steep gravel climbs, fast race efforts, loaded bikepacking routes, and rough mixed-surface riding.

The Lefty Oliver Carbon fork provides 40mm of front suspension travel with lockout, Gen 2 Chamber Damper with All-Over tune, ISO High-Ride air spring, tapered steerer, 700c compatibility, and 55mm offset. Combined with Kingpin rear suspension, it helps smooth unpredictable gravel, dirt roads, rough pavement, and light singletrack while keeping the bike efficient and controlled.

Reserve 40 I 44 GR Carbon tubeless ready rims use Turbulent Aero Tech and are paired with Sapim CX-Ray Aero straight pull spokes, a Lefty 50 front hub, and DT Swiss 350 rear hub. WTB Vulpine TCS Light 700x45c tubeless ready tires complete the fast gravel setup. The cockpit includes an Easton EC90 AX Carbon flared handlebar, Cannondale C1 Conceal stem, Cannondale KnurlCork tape, Fizik Terra Argo X3 saddle, and Cannondale SAVE Carbon seatpost.
