Features
Cannondale Quick CX 4 is a women’s hybrid bike with a tonne of features that enable it to perform effectively in practically any setting.
Cannondale Quick CX 4 is fully comfortable. This is accomplished by Cannondale using parts including a 63mm travel Suntour NEX-E25 fork, SAVE micro-suspension technology, broad 40mm tyres, and a naturally upright riding position.
Thanks to potent Promax mechanical disc brakes and 40mm Vittoria Terreno Dry multi-surface tyres that guarantee high-level grip on and off-road the aforementioned suspension, Cannondale Quick CX 4 also performs flawlessly on light trails and inclement weather.
Numerous gearing possibilities are offered by the 3–7-speed Shimano Tourney drivetrain, and fender and rack mounts let you adapt your bike to any task.
Frame & Fork
The frame of the Cannondale Quick CX 4 is made of aluminium alloy. The lightweight, MTB-inspired Aluminium Alloy frame from Cannondale, a master of aluminium frame design, offers a comfortable upright riding position. The Smartform Alloy technology from Cannondale aids in producing fine tubing, perfectly controlled tube shapes, and robust welds to produce the essential rigidity.
Uneven surfaces are sufficiently mitigated by the Suntour NEX front suspension fork. Cycling on smooth roads is more efficient when the fork is locked out using a switch on the fork crown.
Drivetrain
A drivetrain modelled after an MTB is installed in the Quick CX 4. The hierarchy of Shimano MTB groupsets places the Shimano Altus/Acera combination in the middle. These speeds functioned without any lag throughout the test trip, and the gearboxes shifted smoothly. The 24-Speed combo provided adequate depth for both climbs and acceleration. The shifters operated smoothly and quickly.
Ride Quality
On the Cannondale Quick CX 4, Vittoria Terreno Dry 700x40c tyres are the ideal all-arounders. These 700C tyres had strategically set treads to keep you balanced and provide you with ample traction whether you are riding on dirt or commuting on level roads. The wheelset’s reduced weight made it possible for faster rolling.
The Stock Saddle’s ergonomic shape and enough cushioning ensure the rider comfortable on uneven terrain as well as smooth courses. The overall biking experience was swift and smooth.
Key Features
The front suspension and lightweight, heavy-duty SmartForm C3 alloy frame are perfectly adapted to handle multisurface riding and have the versatility to manage it all.
Strong Suntour NEX-E25 fork with 63 mm of travel helps smooth out rocky patches while maintaining precision steering with a 1-1/2 to 1-1/8 in. tapered head tube.
Engineered flex in the frame is used by SAVE micro-suspension technology to lessen vibrations and improve the uniformity of tyre contact on uneven surfaces.
3 × 7-speed Shimano shifting and strong Promax disc brakes keep you in control whether you’re heading up or down. Whether you’re riding on pavement or mud, large Vittoria 700c x 40 mm multisurface tyres offer superb on- and off-road grip. The mountain biking-inspired natural upright riding stance keeps you at ease and in control anytime you ride. Internal cable routeing with StraightShot results in clear lines and simple maintenance.
You can adjust the Quick CX for cycling in bad weather or making excursions to the store thanks to fender brackets and universal rack mounts (fenders and racks not included). Bright 360-degree reflective components help you stand out to drivers in low light.
