Cannondale CAAD8 Tiagra £949=1167 €

Cannondale’s CAAD8 Tiagra is a compelling package and great value to boot. When Iwein tested it back in January, he liked it so much that we had to prise his hands off the handlebars to send it back.

The frame is a really high quality piece of work featuring Cannondale’s SAVE (Synapse Active Vibration Elimination) seatstays to provide bump and buzz absoption at the back, and it comes in a geometry that’s just slightly more relaxed than you’ll find on a full-on race bike. This really is a very comfortable bike for racking up the miles.(km)

The bike feels light and nimble while the steering is precise and descending is stable thanks to the carbon-bladed Cannondale Ultra fork.

Liquigas are on the new 2013 Cannondale Slices. This is the bike belonging to Peter Sagan, the Slovak rider who has won three of the first eight road stages so far in this year’s Tour. Of course, the Liquigas rider competing for top honours in the general classification is Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali who is currently duking it out with Wiggins and Evans in the top three.

Like Katusha’s Canyon Speedmax Evo, this is a new bike that’ll be available to buy in the 2013 product year. The previous Slice was overdue an update and the Cannondale designers have been busy incorporating many new features. Essentially, it’s a complete redesign.

Most notably, there’s that front end which features an external fork steerer and a stem that flows neatly into the top tube for slippery aerodynamics. The cables run internally, heading inside through a cap in the top of the stem.

The other major change is around the seat tube/top tube junction. Rather than extending out around the rear wheel and heading back in towards the seat post clamp like the Cervélo P5 (see below), the Cannondale engineers have effectively extended the top tube backwards and brought it back in towards the seatstay junction. The idea, as ever, is to reduce drag. The N.Aero-Tec Post that fits in there falls easily within the UCI’s rules on dimensions.

Liquigas use Vision bars. That’s grip tape that Sagan has on both the base bar and the extensions to avoid slipping.

The groupset is SRAM Red although the brake callipers are designed especially for the Slice. As you can see, the front brake sits behind the fork legs while the rear brake is another that lives just behind the bottom bracket.
