Intended Use

The intended use of your bike or frameset is

CONDITION 1 / HIGH PERFORMANCE ROAD.

For riding on
pavement
only

CONDITION 1 / HIGH-PERFORMANCE ROAD

bikes and framesets are designed for riding

on a paved surface where the tires do not lose

ground contact. They are not intended to be

ridden off-road, cyclocross, or touring with

racks or panniers.
Material use is optimized to deliver both

light weight and specific performance. You

must understand that (1) these types of bikes

are intended to give an aggressive racer or

competitive cyclist a performance advantage

over a relatively short product life, (2) a less

aggressive rider will enjoy longer frame life, (3)

you are choosing light weight (shorter frame

life) over more frame weight and a longer

frame life, (4) you are choosing light weight

over more dent resistant or rugged frames

that weigh more. All frames that are very

light need frequent inspection for cracks that

would indicate that the frame is worn out from

fatigue. These frames are likely to be damaged

or broken in a crash. They are not designed to

take abuse or be a rugged workhorse.

WARNING

UNDERSTAND YOUR BIKE AND ITS

INTENDED USE. CHOOSING THE WRONG

BICYCLE FOR YOUR PURPOSE CAN BE

HAZARDOUS. USING YOUR BIKE THE

WRONG WAY IS DANGEROUS.
Industry usage Conditions 1 - 5 are

generalized and evolving. Consult your

Cannondale Dealer about how you intend

to use your bike.
