CANNONDALE CAAD14 3 105 - Chalk [2026]

Not Carbon. Not Sorry.

A lineage of fast aluminum shaped over decades—smooth welds, clean geometry, road-true handling. CAAD14 is built for the pure feel of road riding: the pull, the side-glance, the shoulder-to-shoulder sprint, the arms-up finish.

The most accessible way into the CAAD lineage, without diluting the essentials. CAAD14 3 combines the same SmartForm C1 Premium aluminum frame with Shimano 105 mechanical shifting—smooth, consistent, and made for long seasons of riding. Clean geometry, stable handling, and room for wider tires make it comfortable at tempo and confident in the red zone. Built for performance road riders who want metal they can race hard and ride every day.

What it's for

All-in attacks. Full-gas sprints. Fearless cornering. Feeling alive.
